Every photograph and memory reproduced here is a window to the Melbourne I remember. And to the Melbourne I forget.

There is golden nostalgia within these pages.”  Steve Vizard

 Melbourne Remember When is full of beautifully sentimental memories – all contributed by over 200 regular readers and followers of my Facebook pages ‘Melbourne Remember When’ and ‘Australia Remember When’.

Childhood memories of the Coles Cafeteria, elephant rides at the Zoo, Waltons Department Store on Bourke Street, the Palais Theatre, the Palais de Danse, the Melbourne Cup, Buckleys & Nunn, the ladies’ lounge, the Block Arcade and so much more …

Melbourne Remember When is unashamedly nostalgic, more than 250 pages and over 200 photos and recollections, lost treasures of a bygone era. It’s a pictorial reminder of a different generation, of beach pavilions and ballrooms, of stately old buildings, department stores that are long gone, old trams and trains, legendary personalities, magic moments in sport, serials on the wireless, black and white TV, family cars and holidays, rock’n’roll music and so much more!

Looking at the photos and stories on these pages, there is a sense of simpler days and less troubled times.

Come and share this walk down memory lane and rediscover and celebrate your life’s journey in the Melbourne of your youth.

Melbourne, Remember When

Wow, this book has bought back so many of my childhood memories. I browsed through it, and could literally see myself back there. I must admit that I bought the book for my Mum who is in a Nursing Home in Port Fairy now, and am sure she will enjoy this book with the other residents of the House too. Maybe the staff, younger ones, can read excerpts from the book in front of all the residents at their daily or weekly get-to-gether. I'm sure it will stir a few emotions with them all. Also a huge thank you for the Author Bob Byrne siging the book. Just a thought before I go, it would be great if there was a large print version of the book it so the oldies can read it easier, as I know my Mum will have to get someone to read to her and then shown the pictures.
Thanking you for a great book Bob.
