The first bagging crew

In 1968 the newsletter looked back to the first bagging crew at Berrima Stockhouse. The group photograph dates from late 1929 or early 1930, shortly after production began. The caption names several men and records that Jim Rennie was still working in the stockhouse nearly four decades later.
