John has sent these in:
A couple from some newly developed OLD negatives i discovered which have been in the family for almost 40 years.
These were taken by me through from the passenger seat of my brothers Kombi.
The camera was a hanimex 110 instamatic i received formy 11th birthday which dates these during 1976.
The top shot is looking down Barry Drive from Northbourne Ave towards Black Mountain – check out the complete lack of buildings and cars!
The bottom shot shows a rather sleepy Northbourne Avenue on a rainy Saturday afternoon taken at the Barry Drive Intersection – of note is the pre ACTION Bus in the drab brown livery, the complete lack of traffic lights to the North and the complete lack of cars : )
More to come.
Cheers
John
