Newspaper from 1907 on wall
.

The front page of "The Age" newspaper, from a Wednesday in September 1907, used as a liner beneath wallpaper. If you look from the bottom upwards it is possible to discern at least 6 different versions of wallpaper. The top layer still looks quite old, because at some point the whole lot was covered over with pressed steel. This photo was taken in late 2008 as the house was being demolished.
