Manly's famous sand-modeller, the Ukrainian immigrant John Suchomlin, is commemorated in the pavilion on the South Steyne beachfront. Mr Brian Liley, a reader of this blog from Peterborough in England has just sent us a copy of a photograph he took of Mr Suchomlin in 1970, in retirement in Queensland. It is interesting to compare the photo with the earlier photo from our collection of Mr Suchomlin in circa 1931, at the height of his fame.
