72. Australia : sunshine land.

Australia : sunshine land. World's loveliest harbour, Sydney Australia. (Melbourne : Australian National Travel Association, [1930])

This image shows clearly why the tourist ephemera of the pre-1950s period is so sought-after. We see the Australian on horseback looking down through gum trees at a patchwork of farms lit by the slanting rays of the sun; a beautiful piece of graphic art. The other cover on this brochure shows a birds-eye view of Sydney Harbour in 1930, before the Bridge was built.
