Studio portrait of 4246 Private (Pte) John Augustus McKay. A labourer from Brighton, Victoria prior to enlistment, Pte McKay embarked with the 13th Reinforcements, 7th Battalion from Melbourne on HMAT Demosthenes on 29 December 1915. Later suffering from gastritis and shell shock he returned to Australia on 13 February 1917 and was medically discharged. This is one of a series of photographs taken by the Darge Photographic Company which had a permit to take photographs at the Broadmeadows and Seymour army camps during the First World War. In the 1930s, the Australian War Memorial purchased the original glass negatives from Algernon Darge, along with the photographers' notebooks. The notebooks contain brief details, usually a surname or unit name, for each negative.
