Lets go back into time to Moonta sometime between 1910 to 1920. Moonta is a town located on the Yorke Peninsula of South Australia, 165 kilometres north-northwest of the state capital of Adelaide. It is one of three towns known as the Copper Coast or "Little Cornwall" for their shared copper mining history. It is here where the Royal Adelaide Show is hosted. Lets take a peek at what the show spectators got to experience!
