This lively composition captures six distinct snapshots of Melbourne: the leafy Bourke Street Mall, the Yarra River with its city skyline, the Gothic spire of St Patrick’s Cathedral, the vibrant cityscape from Princess Bridge, the sprawling Melbourne Cricket Ground, and the palm-lined riverside precinct. Each view is bathed in the crisp light and saturated colours of an Australian summer, offering a visual tour of the city’s diverse charm.

Published by Biscay Greetings Pty. Ltd., the postcard bears the printed caption identifying the featured landmarks. It was sent to England from Mt Eliza, with an Australian $1.00 Wayside Frankston postage label. Standard size, approx. 5⅝ x 4 in (about 14.3 x 10.2 cm). The card remains in decent collectible condition, with only light handling visible.

For collectors of Australian city views, this postcard offers a vivid late-20th-century portrayal of Melbourne, preserving an era before the city’s skyline grew taller and denser.
