Historical information

A researcher has advised that these photos are 'a set of photos of the Royal Commission into the Pastoral Industry established in South Australia in 1926, which reported to parliament in 1928 and caused subsequent legislative changes. The Commission consisted of: Chairman T.E. Day (Surveyor General of SA) ..., C.F. Pavy (Secretary), F.W. Lundie (... trade unionist, Port Adelaide and Adelaide city councillor, Board member of the Royal Adelaide Hospital amongst other things), John Edward Pick (pastoralist), and J. O'Connor'.
