Garden Reach and Eagle Street, c. 1910 (reduced in size)
These photographs in and around Brisbane are undated but were published as a collection in about 1910. A few of the images, particularly one or two of the street scenes, were heavily retouched prior to their original publication.
Although originals of these 41 rare photographs are very difficult to find, you can now get them on a cd-rom prepared from original early 20th century items held in a private collection of antiquarian images and views.
This cd-rom isn't mass produced but is compiled individually and personally for each purchaser so few copies exist. You can get one of them here.
A few sample images are set out below, followed by a complete list of all the views.
Merthyr Reach from Bowen Terrace, c.1910 (reduced in size)
Central Railway Station, Ann Street, c. 1910 (reduced in size)
Sandgate by the Sea, 13 miles from North Brisbane, c. 1910 (reduced in size)
Hamilton Reach, Brisbane River, c. 1910 (reduced in size)
These rare views show you how much Brisbane has changed in the last hundred years. Compare these views with what you can see today ...
