'New Zealand Odyssey', published in 1989 by Heinemann, was authored by me, Don Donovan (who did the text and illustrations) and Euan Sarginson, who did the photography and design. In this series of blog posts, I will publish some of my drawings.
More corrugated iron! This lean-to was in the main shopping street of Nelson in 1988 and it, with the adjacent green building, seemed to be defying any attempt to bring the city into the 20th century (as it was). I wonder whether it still exists in the 21st century?
As for the Westpac Bank, I'm not sure whether it was also behind old iron like the repair shop but it had already struggled into a new dawn by changing its name from The Bank of New South Wales in 1982.
