Studio portrait of 4592 Private (Pte) Raymond Frank Solomon. A teacher from Longford, Tasmania prior to enlistment Pte Solomon embarked with the 14th Reinforcements, 12th Battalion from Melbourne on HMAT Warilda on 8 February 1916. Later transferring to the 52nd Battalion he was invalided to England suffering from arthritis. Due to the nature of his affliction he returned to Australia on 16 October 1916 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.
