• Vesna Verencevic said:

  According to By H. B. Waldegrave, ( "Ya gotta Be Jokin" book), Mt Isa swimming pool was provided by Mt Isa Mines Ltd.

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  For almost a century, mining has provided employment and opportunity to people in the Mount Isa region. And Glencore’s Mount Isa Mines is proud to continue this legacy. Mount Isa Mines is one of Australia’s most iconic mining operations, intertwined with our nation’s story of growth and prosperity.

Swimming pool at Paddington Brisbane ca. 1917

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Come summer in Brisbane, you can be forgiven for thinking you're living in a Billy Idol song. Yes, it's hot in the city, both day and night. Hiding in air-conditioned comfort is one way to beat the heat, but having fun outside is all part of living in Queensland. That's where outdoor pools come in, offering the ideal way to cool off while enjoying the warm climate. ITHACA SWIMMING POOL When it comes to location, few outdoor pools can beat Ithaca, nestled as it is among the leafy expanses of Paddington and across the road from Suncorp Stadium. Cafes, bars and restaurants are just a short stroll up the street for those in search of some post-swim refreshments (if the dip itself hasn't done the relaxing trick, that is). The nearby highways might be bustling; however, inside the grass-lined confines of the complex, there's nothing but serenity. Splash about in the saltwater pool, or read a book in one of the many shady areas. The choice is yours. Source: concreteplayground.com/brisbane/travel-leisure/leisure/th...

  I imagine her last name should have a final "h" as in the caption for the neighboring picture
