Re: Re: Photo Page

I'll recheck the slides. I can only go by that information since Frank
passed away a couple of years ago. The mounts don't have processing dates
on them since they were not done by Kodak.

Launceston is now done, and I'll do Hobart next. Then I still have Sydney
and Melbourne to do.

Don,

You've got some really wonderful photos there - congratulations.

I have some doubts about the precision of the dates on a few of the
photos of Bendigo and Ballarat trams though.

The photos of Bendigo 2 and Bendigo 24 are both labelled 1962 and are
both taken at Charing Cross looking toward the South-East, however
note that the background building behind 24 is obviously from an
earlier era. I would say this could have been 10 years earlier.

The photo of Ballarat 39 is wonderful, but if it was indeed taken in
1952 then it is spectacular - photos from that era just dont have the
colour saturation evident here. Apart from that, the tram has the
white apron which if I am not mistaken was introduced as late as the
early 1960's.

Regards,

Chris Brownbill.
