She arrived on Tuesday 13 February 1951 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/18199214 . Not sure where she berthed - it looks like Garden Island in the right background, so maybe the finger wharf at Wooloomooloo?
beachcomber australia said:
Yes, definitely Woolloomooloo - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/18198935 . Apart from the lime-green colour she had the "largest funnel ever built for a passenger ship".
