Some early photos of the Sunshine & District Old Boys Club.

Can anybody identify the people in the photograph?

The Sunshine Old Boys Club was a post‑war community and social club in Sunshine, Victoria, formed by local men, mostly ex‑students, ex‑servicemen, sportsmen and long‑term residents, and it became a major civic organisation with its own clubhouse at 14 Patterson Avenue.

The club is still going and has become an inclusive mixed‑membership club.
