re : Age, Nevada, Nivarna Surfboards.
Your story is a little incorrect,
here are the facts ...
Alf Jeffries started AGE Surfboards....with Gary (willer??? - not exactly sure of the surname) who ran the retail side at Bankstown, circa 1966 - 1967.
Alf ran the factory at Lakemba, employees included Billy "Black Boy" Cilia.
About 1971 - 1972, Alf changed the name to Nirvana Surfboards and later on moved the factory to Kinkumber.
In the late 1970's, Alf sold Nivarna surfboards (proprietor unknown) and relocated to Western Australia.
Bill Cilla was initally involved with Nevada Surfboards ("Lock and load" was the slogan in one magazine advertisement) and later bought Nirvana Surfboards
Alf Jefferies currently resides in
Coffs Harbour.
Given the pencil
marking "Gill", this may indicate an offshoot of Gill Surfboards,
Owner/Shaper : Max Gill.
