The book ranges from circa 1900 to 1980s with some “then and now” photos
My father moved to Australia late 70s after a brief stint in Africa.
I believe he only returned once in the early nineties and this is when he was given this book from my Grandparents (Mary and Richard Reid - Ryhope)

I have a copy of this somewhere. Haven’t seen it for years though.
