The suburb of Alexandria, New South Wales, has been a hub of activity since the mid-1830s, perhaps because of its location just 4km from Sydney’s CBD. By 1868, the area had become the Borough of Alexandria, and 11 years later the site for the first town hall was acquired, with the building still standing to this day. It takes pride of place on the State Heritage Register. Digital copying in Alexandria has helped preserve early photographic memories of buildings such as this. The team here at Minuteman Press can help with safeguarding old photographs and images for everything from Postcards to family Booklets.
Digital copying in Alexandria has also assisted in preserving memories of the local transport system, including trams that were operating in the suburb from as early as 1902. Back then the line used a single track, which was duplicated eight years later but was eventually closed in 1959. The main tram routes took in Henderson Road, Mitchell Road, Ashmore Road, Sydney Park Road, and the Princes Highway.
Some digital copying in Alexandria may also reveal early industries that thrived in the district. In fact, Alexandria gained a reputation for its extensive industrial sector, which rivalled many around Australia. Servicing the printing needs of local companies and individuals is a priority for the team here at Minuteman Press, so call today to speak with one of our professional team.Get a Free Quote for Postcards Get a Free Quote for Booklets
