Notable graphic, depicting the steam ferries in operation from Circular Quay to Manly up until the late 1960's
I cannot determine which ferry this graphic is showing, there is some very faint text on the side of the ferry but I cannot make it out - it will either be the Dee Why or the Curl Curl, both pretty much identical craft that provided the Manly service. Built in Scotland, both were steam ferries (two funnels) and retired from service in 1960 (Curl Curl) and 1968 (Dee Why)
