Thank you so much for these amazing photos, but best of all is that you left enough time between each photo so you could really appreciate the entire photo before the next one came up. Amazing photos and history. Once again thank you so much.😊🇦🇺
At 1.56 in, I have grave doubts that is a 'South Australian volunteer in the 1860's', as he is wearing a Napoleonic French Imperial Guard Uniform.
Hard work and commitment goes into building those towns, businesses, families and communities from scratch. Props.
Its fantastic to see what Australia looked like in color from the late 1800's when my Grandparents were born and again in 1910 when my Dad was born, I came along when color was the norm in 1961. Thanks for a fantastic upload...well done
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it.
Your dad was born in fucking 1910?!
You must have some great memories yourself, passed down from you and your Dad living through the last century!
Colour was the norm in 1961? I remember colour TV being a novelty in Sydney when they began rolling out in the mid to late 70's.
Excellent work, just loved it, especially the Sydney streets.
Thank you so much.
Photos good. Music bad.

Whenever I look at these old photos, I think, "Those horse and cart people built that?" Anyway I enjoyed watching these, thank you.
Great look at previous lives. Thanks
You have Mr Sydney Skukerman (5:05) listed as a wife killer. Intrigued, I detoured off in search of his story, only to find the following according to Trove, 'Special Photograph no. 17A. An entry in the Supplement to the NSW Police Gazette Sydney for Skukerman, (alias Kukarman, alias Cecil Landan) is captioned 'obtains goods from warehousemen by falsely representing that he is in business'. This picture is one of a series of around 2500 "special photographs" taken by New South Wales Police Department photographers between 1910 and 1930. These "special photographs" were mostly taken in the cells at the Central Police Station, Sydney and are, as curator Peter Doyle explains, of "men and women recently plucked from the street, often still animated by the dramas surrounding their apprehension".
Other than that, what a terrific collection!
Awesome job! Thank you for taking the time to do the research history is a lie.
@@GenevaBible1560 History is not "a lie", it's made up of people, stories and many, many different interpretations, which makes it so fascinating (including your terrific channel!) I just found the arresting (mind the pun) photo of the very snappily dressed Mr Sydney Skukerman (5:05) exceptional...could he really be a 'wife killer'? No, just a wee bit opportunistic...a self-made scam artist!
Great work with the colouring. I would love to have seen some scenic photos of Perth, Western Australia. Maybe in your next video! 😀
This is amazing! Have always wanted to see historic photos of Australia before it became an Official Nation. Thanks for sharing
Take the time to walk the streets where you live and look the the old church or buildings there amazing how men were much stronger back then with there horse and carts.
Thanks for sharing this amazing video ❤
Thank you for your comment
Muito bom ver essas imagens do século passado em acores 👏🏼👏🏼
These are awesome!
Thanks 🙂
Thanks a lot !
When the photos are colourised, it looks like the people are in the 21st Century.
¡Espectacular!
Bellísimo trabajo artístico y fotogràfico.
Muchas gracias por compartir.
😊🌸
Muchas gracias, realmente lo aprecio
Thank you very interesting
Great images, many new to me. Good job. Very enjoyable
Thank you so much !
Just discovered your channel. BRILLIANT. How could I NOT subscribe?. Got me!! Thank you so much.
Electric Trams - Sydney. NO. The Scene is Cable Trams - Underground Cable was picked up by a Grabber and pulled along. Hence 2 Rails and Central Gap in the Roadway. Sydney had only 2 Lines for Cable because they preffered Steam until Overhead Electricity was made available.
At 2.48 - "Electric trams, King St, Sydney 1899" seems incorrect to me.
The "trams" are clearly cable-drawn vehicles. Note the absence of overhead electricity-bearing wires and the centre gap between the 2 tram-tracks by which the attaching rod can descend and grip the moving cable
I also have grave doubts about "South Australian Volunteer in 1860s" at 1.58. He looks to be in European military garb....and I can assure you that no "volunteer" army in Australia in the mid-19th century could afford that quality of uniform. AND if they could, they would be laughed at whenever they made an appearance. More chance of him being an Austrian soldier than an Australian soldier.
My mum rode on those trams daily. Nothing incorrect about it.
And BTW,he was an Aussie soldier.
You seriously need a lesson in Australian history. Your ignorance is showing .
@@renross6726 Where is the "electricity" coming from ? No overhead wires. Why the cable-access gap between the tram rails ?
@@renross6726 I've been an Australian for 73 years. YOUR ignorance is on display here.
I'm Australian and love seeing these digitised videos, I hope someone puts them in book format as there's so many hidden gems in each picture and videos are just to quick to explore...great work now to Goggle my notes
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it.
Two things the victorians did well. They knew what good architecture was and knew how to dress well no matter what the event. Smart was the norm. I wish we still wore corsets. It might stop individuals from becoming obese. Then again, people worked harder in that era, so being obese was rare to see. In young women, at least.
No, people didn’t have shopping centres and take aways etc, food was hard won. A roast or such was a luxury on Sundays etc. Sugary foods weren’t as plentiful. We’re rich in comparison, we can get whatever we want when we want. Nothing to do with working hard. Well to do people often got fat from luxurious living. And not everyone was well dressed, poverty was worse for many back then, cholera and dysentery commonplace, no such thing as the good old days. 😅
This added greatly to my weekend. Thank you, very much.
That was really interesting. I enjoyed it a lot.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it.
Where it states 'George Street Sydney 1890' about 8:38, is in fact York Street.
Wonderful to watch each one of these images. Thank you.
I arrived from 1889 7days ago and these photos are very similar to what l took.
the scene at Eldorado 8:57, seems way too urban for a sleepy little country town.
Music accompaniment also 🥇
Thanks
7:09 the colour of the basic WWI uniform for Australian troops (and the British) was khaki, not blue as shown here.
While artistic licence is fine for most of these colourisations, I think in the case of military uniforms which are historically recognisable, the authentic colour looks more realistic, as well as showing respect.
I laughed how many criminals photographed back then. Australia looked pretty rough back then but had great buildings.
Celebrating Australia Day in 1900. Australia Day was first celebrated in 1935. Glad we don’t have to wear those impractical long dresses nowadays, especially to the beach!
💝
great collection
Thank you
15:34 - This is not a photo taken in 1869. The clothing is wrong for that time period.
'Australian Soldiers with captured, London Guns 1918' is Clearly France, possibly Paris, looking at the Haussman Style archtecture and it's proximity to where the guns were captured.
5:58 When I looked Sydney up on Google I got a Daily Mail article with mug shots and in it he apparently was a fraudster, not a killer.
When you think it was only 100 years since a few leaky ships had arrived with a few very weary travellers and very little supplies they had done very well for themselves .
1860,s era would have been nice. Richard Daintree was taking photos about that time. Some of his would be nice.
Not exactly the “earliest photos of Australia”. The camera was embraced by Aussies from about 1840 onwards. As soon as the patent was filed, it spread rapidly. And many of those photos survive.
Lots of old world buildings and electricity
They are far too immense & elaborate to have been built when the population was still relatively small.
Not many pictures of PERTH, I lived there a year in 1973, and the population has almost tripled since I was there. Nice music, 👍🇺🇸
Thanks
Clyde engineering - Time to work? Looks like they're off to the pub!
Maybe not - the nearest pub was/is the Rosehill Hotel, 11km away.
4.14 WW1 uniform -[1914-1918]
Look at the amazing architecture back in the 1800s doesn't the narrative tell us man only had horse and cart? Who really built those buildings? When will the truth be told? Research the research.
Are the portraits paintings ?
Video heading says photos
3:19 indigenous Australians didn’t have blue paint, probably should be ochre
❤🎉❤😮🎉
Thanks
👍🇫🇷
These are old photographs but absolutely none of them are 'the earliest' photos of Australia. Those would date from the 1840 and 1850'. The title is deliberately misleading. Nice photos though.
I found only few photos of the 1850s in very poor quality and not interesting...
途中でとんでもなく長い恐竜の化石の手？を見たけど、この長さだと体長がとんでもないと思った😱😱😱
It’s a whale fin fossil.
It was the flipper from a whale
Very sad...to see such large beautiful animals being slaughtered and photographed as a hunting trophy...
4.14-WW1 [1914-1918]
Photography started being a thing in the late 1830s, from the average age of these photos looks it took 60 - 70 years to get to Australia, a lot of time, since there are photos from the 1840s basically from everywhere. No offence but these are hardly the oldest photos from Australia.
They must have melted their arses off wearing all that crap in a Aussie summer.
And no woke idiots upsetting the vibes… what a wonderful time to be alive in Sydney… much prefer prefer this to the sleek modern. Streetscape… where is the Time Machine 😊
oldest civilisation ??? No its not
Um, Australia is a continent, not a country.
The name Australia refers to both the island nation and the mainland continent which forms a major part of the region known as Oceania.
Pity about the ridiculous music.
Not that great really, when you consider the earliest cameras surfaced in the 1830's.
