Contextual information
This souvenir postcard booklet showcases popular holiday spots and tourist attractions in Western Australia's South West region, particularly around Busselton and the Vasse area, highlighting its scenic beauty and seaside appeal around the turn of the 20th century. It is a collection of nostalgic images rather than a guide to actual water sources, focusing on the "watering" aspect as seaside leisure.
