Agreed - I was a kid when the changeover from TAA to Australian occurred, and we called them "the blue Qantas".
The photo is interesting, having Australian and Alitalia next to each other. Was there only 1 terminal then, with split domestic/intl ops? Or a separation not apparent in the photo? I'm always interested in how MEL developed over time.
