MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA 1920s TRAVELOGUE 76784

Made by the government of Australia to promote the nation in the late 1920s or early 30s, this silent travelogue shows the city of Melbourne with its classic streetcars, towering buildings, Collins Street, Central Railway Station, St. Kilda road, and more.  The film ends with shots of the Melbourne Cup horse race.
