c. 1918, Photograph, B 8505

Untitled photographic composite by an unknown creator comprising 24 portraits of men who were early European settlers of the Port Lincoln and west coast regions of Eyre Peninsula. At some stage in its history the mosaic was cut into halves. They were transferred to the State Library of South Australia (then Public Library) by the South Australian Branch of the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia in 1939 and assigned the numbers B 8505 and B 8506. In 2013 Artlab Australia conservators removed the photographs and original support paper from backing cardboard and reassembled the complete mosaic using acid-free materials.
