This authentic colour photograph, captured in 1972, provides a detailed view of the commercial heart of Grafton, New South Wales, Australia. The archival image focuses on the northern side of Prince Street, showcasing a variety of local and national retailers including the Parkway Shopping Centre, Fays Shoes, Harvey Bros., and a large Woolworths variety store. The streetscape is defined by its wide layout, featuring a high density of period-correct Australian automobiles—such as Holden Kingswoods and Ford Falcons—nose-in parked along the kerb. In the foreground, a mother and her three children cross the road in typical early-1970s summer attire, while overhead, decorative festoon lighting remains strung across the intersection. This factual record captures the prosperous, small-town atmosphere of the Northern Rivers region during a period of significant retail stability. All our images are available as royalty-free instant downloads for use in books, media, and creative projects – or make your own prints for home, work, or as a truly unique gift.
