Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ The back of the card suggests that the writer is recuperating from an operation in Townsville.
Notice that the card cost a halfpenny - if just included address and sender's name only - and would have cost one penny if sent with a message!

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)
