Beautiful Christchurch, album of Mavis Suckling 1927-1929

Circa 1928

"This collection of images of 'Beautiful Christchurch' comes from Great Aunt Mavis's album. The images individually aren't striking...it is the collection of them on the page that speaks a greater story. How the images have been carefully placed and named and the pride in her statement that her home town is beautiful. From album of Mavis Suckling 1927-1929." - Contributor's note
