Gary Birdsall

Around 1962 Gary Birdsall was one of Cronulla’s first and finest surfers and photographer Bob Weekes snapped a shot of Gary charging on a sizeable day at  Cronulla Point. The image ended up on the cover of the 60’s surf band The Atlantics record album called Bombora. Below is the shot and cover now a collectors item signed by Birdsall.
