Collins Street (looking East), c. 1910 (reduced in size)
These photographs in and around Melbourne are undated but were published as a collection in about 1910.
Although originals of these 40 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.
Collins Street (looking East from Market Street), c.1910 (reduced in size)
Melbourne's Suburban Railway Traffic, c. 1910 (reduced in size)
Metropolitan Fire Brigade Station, c. 1910 (reduced in size)
Melbourne Cricket Club Ground, c. 1910 (reduced in size)
These rare views show you how much Melbourne has changed in the last hundred years. Compare these views with what you can see today ...
