The photographer of this collection is unknown. Identification of the subject of the glass plate is determined by the name in the corner of the plate (either scratched on or written with a soft graphite pencil) presumably relating to either the sitter and /or the person paying the photographer. The plates are likely to have been the work of a Hobart portrait studio photographer, although the plates may be the work of several different photographers as additional glass plates have been added to this series at a later date.

These records are part of the holdings of the Tasmanian Archives
