Melbourne’s Colourful Trams is a vibrant photographic tribute to Melbourne’s iconic trams, capturing the city’s illuminated and advertisement-covered trams throughout the 1970s. This volume showcases a unique era when trams became moving billboards, brightening Melbourne’s streetscapes with bold colour, creativity, and charm.

Featuring rare and beautifully composed images, the book highlights the vintage trams that carried striking commercial designs through the heart of Melbourne. These trams were not only a mode of transport but also a cultural and visual feature of the city, representing a fascinating chapter in Australian tram and advertising history.

Presented in a 56-page, landscape-format, full-colour photographic album, this book is perfect for tram enthusiasts, historians of Melbourne public transport, urban design aficionados, and collectors of Australian transport history. It preserves a nostalgic yet invaluable record of a bygone era on Melbourne’s streets.
