PhotographerJack Collier
DescriptionOne of a series of scale models made by Jack Collier, around 2002. They were sometimes based on photographs. Many of them are displayed in the Golder Cottage Museum.
He sent photographs to the 'Leader' for publication. The collection has 13, covering the Blockhouse, Golder Cottage, Hazelwood's second building, 'McCurdy's Castle', Upper Hutt Station, Wallaceville Church and a row of 'memorable longdrops'. 11 have been scanned for 'Recollect'; 2 views of the Wallaceville church have not. A copy of the well-known original photo of the shop came with the model photos.
There are also models of Pumpkin Cottage and Wairau Cottage somewhere.
The chimney is part of the bakehouse; its distance from the shop is probably guesswork.
This picture was printed in the April 2, 2003 'Leader'. The model was made of macrocarpa and had taken between 50 and 75 hours' work. By that stage Jack had also completed models of 'McCurdy's Castle', Wallaceville Church,, the Blockhouse, Golder Cottage and Pumpkin Cottage.Date Taken2nd January 2003
