Graffiti has been inscribed onto the trunk of the foreground tree. The basic black and white image has been tinted with colour to highlight the main features. This card was sent to Louisa in Nov. 1908. Comments from the sender include: "You will see I'm home again. Had a real good time. Sydney is an ideal place for a holiday, we were all sorry to leave it as we felt quite at home and had met with so much kindness from the 'man in the street' - say you were a visitor and everything was done for your comfort. We were only the weekend at the mts (mountains?) but saw several of their beauty spots, in some ways they are better and in others do not come up to our own Buffalo. From what I hear the trip is worth taking up the new road so you had better come & try Mr Sossells (?) catering." Inscription: Lengthy ink inscription on verso. Addressed to Miss Bishop, Baarmutha, Bambra Rd, Caulfield. Postmark and postage stamp on verso. The front of the card says 'Lake Kerferd'.Access StatusOpen for public accessRequest TypeRequest itemCopyright StatusPublic domainConditions of Use and ReproductionThis item is out of copyright.
