Circa 1947 - No. 78 "COOGEE BEACH N.S.W.", Sydney, New South Wales, Australia (restored version)
IMAGE INFO
- I've dated this postcard pic as Circa 1947, due to it (a) being pre-1948 dismantling of the shark netting & supporting pylon(s) by Randwick Council (carried out after neglect & continuing storm damage made the system uneconomic to replace) & (b) the vehicles appear to be mostly 30-40's types.
***************************
SOURCE INFO
- The original image is from my grandmother Honor's small collection of family ephemera.
****************************
PROCESS INFO
- Digitized using a Canon Canoscan 8800F scanner.
- Restored from the very grainy & dirty original B&W print quality using Adobe Photoshop CS Windows (sepia duo-tone version).
