On this #TimeWarpTuesday we are sharing some photographs as they appear in a little booklet that is jam packed with history and wonderful little anecdotes of our past. They are included as scans from the booklet itself as they are all that we have.

So now for the big question….

Can You Help?

We are hoping that someone out there may have been the original donor of the photographs used in the booklet or indeed may know how to contact family members of people in the photos, or be related to those named as having donated the photographs to the original booklet project. We would love to borrow originals of these photographs to digitise them and possibly uncover any hidden details such as street signs, etc. There are some fantastic images here that document both big and little moments and it would be wonderful to be able to preserve them in their full glory for both now and future generations to enjoy.

If you can help, please reach out to us at the Library. You can contact us by phone (08) 9373 5500, or email vicparklibrary@vicpark.wa.gov.au, or visit us in person.

In the meantime, we hope you enjoy this photographic walk back through time.

#LoveVicPark
