Griffiths Bros Choice Tea Tin
The currency of tea
Tucked under some old flour and sugar bags is this Griffiths Bros Choice Tea tin, a familiar reminder of the hard work of Aboriginal labour on the nearby stations and mustering camps. As you browse, the voices of people speaking about their station days can be heard, interspersed with songs of country and history. Tea was a crucial item of the station rations that also included flour, sugar and tobacco, given to families instead of wages.
