Rare Book Week: North Melbourne Ghost Signs

July 24 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Cultural archaeology in Haunted Hotham

Speaker: Sean Reynolds

You’ve likely stumbled upon them, roaming the winding streets of North Melbourne—ghost signs, those timeworn remnants of advertisements past, keepers of tales hidden in plain sight.

Join Sean, the madcap maestro behind the Instagram cult-hit ‘Melbourne Ghost Signs’, for a night drenched in stories, histories and mysteries. Rendezvous with the Sartorial Sultan of Errol Street; gawk at the ludicrous matrimony of milk & cigarettes; and unravel the cryptic enigma of a “cultural archaeologist”.

Wednesday 24th July, 6-7pm
Presented by Public Records Office Victoria
Victorian Archives Centre, 99 Shiel Street, North Melbourne
This event will also be live-streamed.
