We're very curious. What's going on in this picture? Sunscreen application, treating a bluebottle sting, something else? Your thoughts are welcome.
Simon Miller said:
Perhaps he's the suspicious type and dusting for fingerprints. He need look no further than the top left corner of the photo.

State Library of New South Wales said:
In most of the photographs of Sydney beaches in the Library in the 1930s, people sunbaked in the sand. Towels were smaller and many people didn't even have them at the beach.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Retro Beach, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

No towels? Fascinating. The sand can get really hot in summer, that's got to burn.
