Old Mates met for dinner - but when?

Do any of these faces appear in old family photo albums? The shot shows Mates Ltd staff enjoying a dinner at Malcolm Hall in Kiewa Street (now the site of the Commodore Motel) but we’re not exactly sure when the picture was taken – although somewhere between the 1920s and 1940s seems likely. If you recognise any of the people in the photo, please let us know so we can update our archives.
