The “dressing” of Thomas Joseph Byrnes, former Premier of Queensland and MLA for Warwick, which heralds the countdown to Jumpers and Jazz, happened last week.

In line with the 2012 theme of ‘Spice’, the colour palette for Mr Byrnes’ scarf and beanie include rich reds, rusty browns and purple. Pictured is Ken Martin dressing Mr Byrnes!
