A good title for your thread @
Micky Duck.
This is one of the men that I will always remember as a “real good man” – Henry Irwin who lived in the bush behind Tokomaru just south of Palmerston North – he made his living from deer skins and ammo from tails. He packed the dried skins out in big bundles and down to the end of Albert Rd to catch a Newmans bus to Dalgety’s in Palmy.
Sadly – Henry lost his way in life after the war and became a recluse in the bush – he was a good friend to most of us hunters who bothered to visit him – he would always tell us where to get a deer.
Pictures around 1965 on the Tokomaru River.
