  • Signatures / Inscriptions

    Photographs largely inscribed and identified on the reverse by J.W. Lockyer, July 1978

    "These photographs seem to be largley PRS's trip to England to take up his Rhodes Scholarship. However, there are some of particular P.R.S. interest, including two which show (I strongly believe) Jack Lindsay and his de facto wife Elza [de Locre] (in the 20's). J.W. Lockyer, July 1978"
