Tea-towel: Gold Coast

Tea-towel: Gold Coast. Exotic tropical flowers and a native lorikeet surmount this map of the Gold Coast. Elephant Rock, Kirra had been an important subject for watercolourist H.C. Simpson from the 1930s but its status as an icon of the coast was soon taken over by structures such as the RSL Club at Tweed Heads. More specific locations within the Gold Coast, in this instance Currumbin Beach, are identified by overprinting. Collection of Glenn Cooke
