The catalogue caption to this photo says the aircraft belongs to Victorian and Interstate Airways. However it did not acquire VH-UJV until 1940 and besides had "VIA" painted on the fin. In 1938, when the photo was supposed to have been taken, UJV was based at Deniliquin, not far from Eurolie Station. The logo cannot be deciphered but it had previously been operated by the Life Science School of Applied Psychology, which likely explains the aircraft name. UJV was impressed by the RAAF in July 1940. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales
