We're going back to 1910, to Melbourne, Australia, for this look everyday city scenes from "Richmond Train Station, Collins Street, the Town Hall, Elizabeth Street, Little Collins Street, Swanston Street, St Paul's Cathedral, Bourke Street, the Treasury Building, Flinders Street Station," a boat regatta, an industrial show, and more. We always note some of the constants from these restored early- 19th Century films: the pace of life, the reliance on shoe leather or streetcars/ trains for transportation, and the elaborate, formal clothing that was part of the societal norm.
