Northcote plumbers not included - see Northcote.
Many plumbers can be identified from valve covers. Sometimes its just their name, sometimes address, or name and suburb.
These covers are testament to plumbers who worked over 50 years and more in the past. Thus are a valuable piece of industrial archaeology.
Not surprising is that many found work outside their normal environment. The would seek work where and when they could.
