P&O liner RMS MALOJA, from the Sydney Harbour Bridge

from Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons

    Wikipedia - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMS_Maloja The presence of the vehicle ferry (see note) implies pre March 1932 Harbour Bridge opening (how geeky can I possibly get?) Possibly 21/8/1931 at 16.30 (Customs House clock see note) after a 4pm departure from Pyrmont? - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16827530

    beachcomber australia Super sleuth! Well spotted re the ferry, I wonder how Hall got to be on the Harbour Bridge at that time, a maritime photographer's dream.
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia Thanks for spotting the duplicate with this photograph beachcomber, oops! Regarding Hall being in two places at the same time, we reckon either one may have been taken by an employee of Hall & Co, especially seeing as this is a c 1932 image which makes this theory seem likely as the Hall business would have been more established.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Ha! I now think it must have been a different occasion, as the boat moored alongside Bennelong Point (see note) is different in each photo.
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia What do you think about the theory here though:
    RITANO MARU acting as a flagship possibly for the Anniversary Day regatta in Sydney Harbour

    Possibly taken at different times, but on the same day for the bridge opening? Probably too difficult to say for sure.

    The procession of ships under the Harbour Bridge took place after the official opening ceremony on 19th March, 1932... The procession was led by RMS Maloja (P&O)...followed by RMS Orford (Orient Line)...SS Nieuw Zeeland (KPM)...TSMV Manunda (Adelaide SS Co)...SS Port Auckland (Port Line)...MV Viminale (Lloyd Triestino)...Kitano Maru (NYK)...
