The Cremorne Tea Gardens set up by Theodore Politis in the Melbourne suburb of St Kilda in 1916.

Politis came from the island of Leukas to Australia in 1901.

I include this photograph here because another Politis, George Politis, an emigrant - initially TO Karavas, Kythera - would later, emigrate to Brisbane, Australia, and establish a shop there.

His son, Nick Politis, would later achieve both fame and fortune in Sydney, NSW.
