    This collection of photographs was removed from the Mitchell Library's Small Pictures File (a self-indexing file accessible in the Library's reading room) in 1990 for preservation reasons.
    Each photograph was mounted on a separate sheet with a typescript note "From an album, on the last page of which, in the same hand as the titles of the photographs, was: Colonel Trevor 14th Regiment, November 10th 1869"
    Photographers include: Samuel Clifford (nos. 19,21,22,30) identified from Tasamanian Images database, State Library of Tasmania, July 2002 and Tasmanian scenes / S. Clifford photographer (Mitchell Library PXA 503). The wide angle panoramic views ca. 1865, in the Sydney series, were probably taken by Freeman Brothers or Victor Prout (identified from other Freeman Bros. & Prout panoramas in the Pictures Collection, Mitchell Library).
