This authentic colour photograph, captured in 1972, documents the exterior of the Log Cabin Motor Inn in Penrith, New South Wales, Australia. The archival image highlights the motel’s distinctive architectural style, combining dark brickwork with decorative white timber railings and gables across its long, two-storey facade. A large, prominent yellow sign with black lettering identifies the “LOG CABIN Motor Inn” in the foreground, while a smaller neon “MOTEL” sign is visible atop the red terracotta tiled roof. Several period-correct vehicles are parked in the bitumen lot, including a blue Holden HQ and a bronze-coloured sedan. Located near the banks of the Nepean River, this establishment was a landmark for travellers on the Great Western Highway heading toward the Blue Mountains. This factual record captures the well-maintained appearance of the motor inn during the height of the 1970s Australian touring boom. All our images are available as royalty-free instant downloads for use in books, media, and creative projects – or make your own prints for home, work, or as a truly unique gift.
