Sydney Harbour Bridge and City Railway

Willoughby, N.S.W. : H. Phillips, [1930].  Large oblong octavo (210 x 260 mm), pictorial grey wrappers printed in blue, stapled; [44] pp, with b/w photographic illustrations and line drawings throughout; a fine copy.

Internal references and illustrations indicate this pamphlet was probably published in 1930. One of the illustrations is an artist’s impression of how the bridge might be illuminated ‘on its opening night in 1931’. The pamphlet describes, both pictorially and in text, the twin engineering feats of the construction of the bridge and the new city railway.

Note : there is also a similar publication of the same title, different measurement, of 32 pages.
