Series notes:
Slides taken by Frederick Smithies and Gustav Weindorfer with images of Tasmania, mainly of landscapes, walking expeditions, and remote huts. The slides are contained in five boxes, four wooden and one cardboard. The boxes were donated after Frederick Smithies' death and most relate to Cradle Mountain. Some may have been taken by Gustav Weindorfer as his name appears on the smaller boxes within the fifth box. The lantern slides for the first four boxes have been listed. The fifth box is being listed as at 02/2023. No printed copies are available. Almost all titles have been created by Archives Staff as few items contained descriptions. There are numbers stuck on some of the slides. These numbers have been included in the item titles.

These records are part of the holdings of the Tasmanian Archives
