Bit out of date, but here are some photos from Australia Day this year.

They had these crazy old busses giving people free rides around the city.

Inside they still had some old postings around and about. This one shows which area of the city that you can ride around in for only 10¢.

Old advertising amuses me in its direct quaitness. This one reads “100% of the people who travel by bus wear clothes. The bus is therefore a good place to advertise outerwear, underwear, summerwear, winterwear, sportswear, town, country, and everywhere wear.” and in script at the bottom: “P.S. Bet you read this!”

“100% of the people who travel by bus eat. The bus therefore is an exceptionally good place to advertise fruit, vegitables, meat, poultry, dairy produce, chocolates, sweets, chewing tobacco and indigestion tablets.” — emphasis mine.
