4:38 That's Pitt Street Sydney. On the right side is Soul Pattinson Chemist (or Washington H. Soul & Co). It closed in 2017 and I was the last storeman assistant working there. It was weird working there during its last week as a business. Framed B'n'W photos of the chemist through out history were being boxed up and customers that had been entering the store for 60 odd years were walking in to take their final look around. And then closed forever. It was one of the finest places I ever worked for. Last time I looked, it was some kind of fly-by-night surf store full of clueless young people.
@@Surinboy60 I used to go to the city often in the early 90's to mid 90's. My favourite place was Red Eye records.

Great spotting! I have zero historical knowledge but I'm ok at google searching and this chap is Eduardo Majeroni. He came to Australia in 1875. He and his wife made a living doing these reenactments in Sydney and he was also manager of Sydney’s Theatre Royal. (Read his Wikipedia page, he had quite an adventurous life)
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.
I remember going to the Australian Museum in Sydney around 1983 and seeing the mounted sunfish. That thing was so weird, it really left an impression on me. I had no idea anything that weird existed at the time. I wonder if the one in the photo you showed from 1883 is the same one being installed into the museum? If it is, you got the colour wrong - it was a steely blue. Great video though, really interesting.
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.
The shot at 8:36 labelled George St is incorrect. Its the back of the QVB in York st and the town hall clock tower can be seen in the distance. The photo was taken about number 109 York st. George st is the other side of the QVB.
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.
The date on the photo at 8:35 captioned "George Street Sydney 1890" is incorrect. The building with the domed roof is the Queen Victoria Building, which was commenced in 1893 and wasn't completed until 1898.
The date on the photo at 1:40 captioned "George street 1876 Sydney" is incorrect. The building in the distance with the large central dome and smaller domes on the corners is the Queen Victoria Building. Construction of that building began in 1893 and was completed in 1898.
'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.
At 8.53 they couldn’t have celebrated Australia Day in 1900. Australia became one country rather than being made up of separate British colonies in 1901, termed Federation.
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. 😅
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!
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.
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.
Same as, same as. Always interesting, though. I came across someone else's hardcover book of old time Australian photographs, some 20-odd years ago. Woman in Victorian dress on a bicycle, Northern Territory, early 1900s. Three young white siblings in group portrait from the 1880s, and I'm thinking ' an entire generation of time before WW1 '. 1860 assembly of PNG natives at some colonial event, like, one full entire century before I myself was ever conceived. That sort of thing. People necessarily long since gone. Faces from the distant past.
The meaning and significance of Australia Day has evolved since the first records of celebration in 1808, with contested views on the day existing since at least 1888 ( Wikipedia )

@ Mistake #1, believing Wikipedia is always correct. 😆 The various territories were still squabbling about being independent countries until the mid 1890’s, so nobody was celebrating a ‘national’ day. At one point the federation was going to include New Zealand - that offer is still open if they wish to take it up. Between 1901 and 1935, the various states declared their own ‘Australia’ Day, most of which then morphed into state’s days when an agreement on 26 January being the national day was finally reached. It is not a settled matter. Every December there are calls for the date to be changed. It’s an often punted political football. It’s on again now 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
5:55 The Sydney Skukerman photo is wrong! Special Photograph no. 17A. An entry in the Supplement to the NSW Police Gazette Sydney forSkukerman, (alias Kukarman, alias Cecil Landan) is captioned 'obtains goods from warehousemen by falsely representing that he is in business'.
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 .
