"Old Tom's" reed baskets
handmade in the 1950s
on Bribie Island
In the late 1950s "Old Tom" Pethers used to make baskets out of reeds with tin bases. Recent memories from the Lind family recalled Old Tom and his baskets and remarkably two of his baskets are still used today!
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Thank you to the Lind family for sharing their memories.
