Mayfair Theatre, 170 Thomas Street, Dandenong in 1968.

The Boomerang Theatre (as it was known) officially opened in 1924 as one of Dandenong's earliest, if not first, theatre. In 1950 it became known as the Mayfair Theater.

The Mayfair Buildings (Between Lonsdale and Thomas streets) replaced Dunbar’s Royal "new" Hotel in 1922. Situated at the rear of 221–229 Lonsdale street, The Mayfair Theatre was demolished 1968, not long after this photo was taken, along with the Lonsdale street facing building.

Hanover arcade was built on this site also going through to Lonsdale Street, This too was demolished in the early 2010's, A site with many faces and constructions over the years now bares no historical buildings.
