I came across a little booklet printed in 1930 on Port Macquarie in New South Wales, Australia
It appears to be an early tourist promotion for the area, and mentions the tradespeople that you could meet up with if you had gone there on holidays in the 1930's
For anyone interested in local history or local genealogy it provides some interesting pieces of information
The writing is in a very flowery style, old fashioned prose that was taught back when the 3 R's were taken seriously
Some of the photos show people, but have no titles to say who they are, others are of the buildings.
A PAST IN BLACK AND WHITE (a little background history) with photos
THE ROYAL HOTEL with photo
THE PROVISION STORE (Mr. Cummings) shop photo
THE GARAGE (R.M.Rosenbaum) garage photo
THE BAKER (W. Doak) restaurant photo
THE BUILDER (T.R. Rosenbaum) house photo
THE BUTCHER (Ross and Tolhurst), THE MILKMAN (Bert Hyde) and THE CHAUFFEUR (Preston Cains)
no photos for these three so I combined them on the one page, on second thoughts I included some of the scenery mentioned in The Chauffeur
THE BOATMAN (R.W.Reckless) scenery photos
(my distant relative - I'd really like to hear from anyone with connections to this family)
THE WATCHMAKER (F. Condon) photo
THE REGATTA - scenery photos
G. QUAST'S electric light and ice supply - photos only
Then there are assorted photos with catchy titles but no identification of the people - if anyone recognizes someone please let me know.
ASSORTED PHOTOS including
a gala night at Keena's theatre
collecting orchids, stag and elkhorns, ferns from the bush
ship loading timber
school children
BEACHES AND BEACH GIRLS (and boys!!)
