Real Photo Cards by E. Latham - do you have any?

#1 Post by Ross Ewington » Sun May 06, 2012 12:56 pm

This real photo card of the Strickland Falls on Mt Wellington is inscribed "E. (or F.) Latham Photo".

I can't recall seeing other cards attributed to Latham before and he isn't listed by Chris Long in "Tasmanian Photographers 1840-1940".

Do you have any other cards by Latham? Do you have any background information about him (or her)?

Any contributions will be appreciated.

Card looks c 1912. According to the 1913 Tas PO Directory a F G H Latham lived at 199 Melville Street Hobart. This could be on the corner with Molle Street ? The same F G H Latham in 1904 lived at 64 High Street Sandy Bay. No details of his occupation. Could be your man?
