The MARIPOSA docked at Circular Quay East on 16th July 1934 and the following day, 17th July, the floating crane TITAN unloaded Kingsford Smith's aeroplane onto a barge for transport to Anderson Park, Neutral Bay.
The reference to Woolloomooloo in an error. -

avro99 Yes, the shipping intelligence indicates the Mariposa was berthed at Circular Quay No. 2 wharf...which is where this pic was taken...
I gather this pic (below) might have been taken shortly before the Mariposa departed from the US...
- SMH, 19th July, 1934...item re the authorities moving to stop Kingsford Smith using the name 'ANZAC'... -

Actually an Altair when seen here (conversion to Altair finnished 29 May 1931 when it also got its restricted reg NR15W). Owner was James Goodwin Hall and he crashed the aircraft later that same year (29 Sep). Stig
