4 Nov 1940 - No. 12 - "ON THE SEASIDE", Tel Aviv, Palestine (now Israel) - real photo card - circa 1937

            IMAGE INFO
- Commercial sign for "Cafe Semadar" can be seen on the multi-storey building at far right of the pic, along with some more advertising in Hebrew.
- Can anyone with local knowledge of Tel Aviv beach suggest exactly where on the beach the old Cafe Semadar might have been located? (the position I have given in the map is only a "best guess" approximation!)
***************************
SOURCE INFO
- The original real photo card (1 of a pack of 12) was purchased by my late father-in-law, Driver Tom Beazley, 2/8 Infantry Battalion, 6th Division, 2nd Australian Imperial Force, whilst on leave in Tel Aviv.
****************************
PROCESS INFO
- Digitized using a CANON Canoscan 8800F scanner.
- Restored from the original hand-coloured card quality using Adobe Photoshop Creative Suite 8.0 (note - I decided to remove the effect of the original poorly applied daubs of pastel water colour, as I felt the messy splashes of colour detracted significantly from some of the finer details in the photo).
