I have written a biography on Walter Lindrum, and am currently compiling an updated and expanded second book. I have not seen this photo previously, and am trying to date it. I note that there is a name on the bottom right of the photo. It appears to read 'Clark Careya, Mildura'. It thus seems likely the photo was taken in the Mildura district. I have conducted a Trove search, trying to find Walter Lindrum and Billy Grime being at Mildura at the same time - no success. Is is possible to obtain a copy of the photo? Do you have any further information on this photo?
