The West Australian Surf gallery has been gifted five photographic prints from Perth photographer Paul Jarvis. The photos are of well-known Yallingup surfer Bob Monkman.
They were to accompany an article on Bob in Australian Long Boarder (ALB) magazine (Edition 18) written by Surf Gallery curator Mick Marlin in 2004.
