Can you help us solve a mystery? 110-year-old photographs

The Team from Auckland Museum

We're hoping to find out who the people are in these 110-year-old photographs, and (if we're lucky) who the keen amateur photographer was. Could they be members of your family?

We're hoping to find out who the people are in these 110-year-old photographs, and (if we're lucky) who the keen amateur photographer was. Could they be members of your family?

The images were gifted to us in 2016 as glass plate negatives, after being initially purchased in the 1970s from Auckland's City Markets (now Aotea Square). We know nearly nothing about them but the photos give a few clues. They were taken in the early 1900s, mostly in Auckland but also across the North Island. There are also suggestions of the photographer’s links to the Auckland Jewish community.

We want to know more to help tell their stories. Do you recognise any of these people?

Contact us at pictorial@aucklandmuseum.com if you have any further clues. Please share with family and friends if you think they may be able to help!

Bad bus driver/s

On my way home tonight I had an encounter with 2 buses racing up Pakuranga Highway.

The incident occurred at around 6:20pm with 2 Howick and Eastern buses racing each other up Pakuranga H'way at speeds of around 80km/h. This happened during peak hour, between the Highland Park center and Cascades Road, heading toward Pakuranga Plaza.

The obvious disregard of the road rules and the fact that pedestrians and drivers are out to unnecessary risk is absolutely unacceptable.

Has anyone else had such encounters? Do the speed limits and road rules not apply to the bus services? And..How do we go about reporting and preventing this happening in our neighbourhood?

Not impressed.
