Description

Unique IDA-01187674SeriesDemolition Books - Albums and Prints, 1900-1949Alternative titleCondemnations and Demolitions from 1536 to [1638]DateBetween 1st January 1928 and 31st December 1931Date qualifieryear onlyFormatPhotograph - AlbumDescriptionThere are 15 volumes of photographs in this series that show buildings and structures earmarked for condemnation or demolition, taken from mid-1900 through until 1931. Contact prints were produced from glass plate negatives and pasted into the albums, usually two images per page. The photographs were assigned a sequential number (from 1 to 1638) and most have a written caption underneath that provides the location and date the image was taken.

This volume contains photographs taken in 1928–31. Most of the photographs in this album are stamped with the photographer's name: Milton Kent. Note that there are often two perspectives of the same building

The final two pages have snapshots 105mm x 82mm pasted in showing fruit stalls (3), buildings on Batman Lane (2), demolition of Hoskins Steel works (3), 30 Albion Street (2) and 57 Eliza Street (1).

The areas covered in this album include: City, Camperdown, Chippendale, Darlinghurst, Haymarket, Newtown, The Rocks, Surry Hills, Pyrmont, Ultimo, Woolloomooloo
