Description
A bumper book that shows us bits of Australia we've loved and forgotten, and reminds us that the best parts haven't changed.
Remember grabbing a copy of the late edition afternoon paper from the paper boy? Watching a Graham Kennedy skit on TV? Did you buy a 45rpm single or a 33rpm album at your local record shop? And play it on your record player? How time has flown! Take a happily sentimental trip down memory lane with Bob Byrne as he shows us - through hundreds of nostalgic photos - the bits of Australia we've forgotten, and the identities and landmarks we've loved.
