At Old Gippstown we have a large collection of cameras, projectors, developing equipment and many other items associated with cameras and photography throughout the ages. A new display is a collection of Herbert George Toye of Moe’s photographic equipment: a keen photographer who took thousands of photographs around Moe in the ‘boom times’ after World War II. These are housed in the Tyabb Mechanics’ Institute hall in the annexe room.
