Hardback small octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), reverse side jacket lightly toned (creased top spine), corner tips covers slightly bumped, pages lightly toned, sticker mark inside front cover. 192 pp. In this fascinating social history about a typical street in Australia in the 1920s and 1930s, John Kingsmill brings to life things and habits long gone - the woollen swimsuit, the picture-show pianist, the compulsory man's hat - as well as recapturing the wonder that goes with the 'newâ: a milk bar, talking pictures, or World War II. A perceptive, compassionate and delightfully accurate precious social document. (Based on a street in Bondi, in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs.).
