St Peters, mural

This is part of a mural called "The Spirit of St Peters" which is on the side of an industrial building on the corner of Princes Highway and Campbell Road, in the inner west suburb of St Peters. It was designed and hand-painted by street artist Alex Lehours in 2022. The mural celebrates two local businesses that occupied this building in the past. This half of the mural features City Star Motors (30 years) and the other half features Antoniou Fillo Pastry (60 years).

  3. What a charming mural. I like the tractor, but I LOVE the old cars and truck. They don't make them like that anymore.

  5. What a fun mural with both ads and vehicles from the 1930s up to the 1950s

    1. Great mural - perhaps the artist could correct the Roman numerals? I do not mean this in a mean way - I genuinely hope he can fix it to save embarrassment. 1944 in Roman numerals is MCMXLIV
