    Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection Shot probably taken in 1941-42. Manly Wharf was upgraded in the early 1940s. The remains of the original wharf structure are shown on the right hand side of the picture.

The Esplanade, Coogee

from Powerhouse Museum

  • Michael Sutton said:
    Cool photo, I think I may have just found my new assignment topic.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    @ Michael Sutton (was Sutto 007) - How did your assignment go? Anything to share?! The electric tram (1902+), the height of the Norfolk pines, Edwardian dress, the organised bathing, and the jaunty typeface style indicate c.1905.
