    I think it is before 1935 due to the lack of Luna Park. And the cars!

  • FredV45 said:
    This is the Strathaird of 1932 or the Strathnaver (1931), P&O sisters built for the England-Australia service and on it except for WW2 duties until their scrapping in Hong Kong in 1961. Checking the bow at max resolution, it looks more like the former name!
