Nathan Road 1960s.jpg

Does anyone know exactly where on Nathan Road this is? I am wondering if it might be near Soy and Dundas Streets, as it was my mother's, and the factory her father managed (Orient Cigars) where she lived as a child was in that area.

(The image is printed on strange slightly crinkly paper, hence the odd surface effect)

An early photo this week - we're off on a family vacation tomorrow, so I won't be here at the weekend to send it out.

If you can add anything about its "who / what / when / where", please can you let us know in the comments below? I look forward to reading them when we get back next week.

Regards, David

On the Flickr page, commenter 'tommybegood' identifies the location as:

Intersection between Kimberly Road & Carnarvon Road.

So that should be Kimberley road running left-right, and Carnarvon road sloping down and away in front of the viewer.
