😍5:33 The gentleman cleaning the park bench for the lady, absolutely charming

How magnificent Sydney once looked.

I used to be fascinated by the old wooden Circular Quay jetties and ferries of the 60s. Everything creaked and moved with the water and arrival of the boats. Catching the ferry to Taronga was an absolute joy as a child.

This is the Sydney of my ancestors. I love seeing how it was for them.
-
What a beautiful film thanks so much for sharing. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
-
Amazing. I love old films about Sydney. ❤

6:01 I'm wondering if the young trees surrounded by metal guards, leading up to the NSW Art Gallery, are the same LARGE Morton Bay Figs that grace the Domain today? I am immensely grateful to the landscape architects from a century ago, who designed and planted the magnificent trees we get to enjoy today.

Beautiful restoration thank you NFSA Films.
-
Fascinating. Some scenes have barely changed. Others are almost unrecognizable.
-
Wow. This was incredible. It was too early for the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. Thanks for posting
-
Thanks NFSA, invaluable film and great work to restore it ( and thanks for making it available here). Bravo!
-
Wow! NFSA you have excelled again. You can tell how much work has gone into restoring this footage. Magnificent time capsule of Sydney life returning after WW1. Thank you .
-
Thank you for a great glimpse of Sydney in the past
-
Loved seeing my home town as it was 95 years ago and trying to guess what streets and buildings it showed. Great work, thank you!

5:20 Though only shown on a few frames, there is vision of three women dressed in white and a set of cricket stumps. In the late-1920s there was surge of interest in women’s cricket and one place they would play and practice was on The Domain which had pitches up until WW2.

Watching this and then thinking nearly everyone in these clips , has died , maybe a couple still walk the earth
-
Times were simpler then, more carefree, trams ruled before the dirty diesel buses replaced them. No self respecting man or woman would be seen in public, back then, without a nice hat. Thank you NFSA, your efforts are much appreciated.

Amazing film...love all the footage...the cars are amazing & the fashions, & everyone wearing hats.

Congratulations NFSA for this marvellous time capsule. You are doing great and important work for future generations to study, marvel and enjoy. Back to work!
