The recruitment march starts - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/110054908 At Yass, (AWM) - www.awm.gov.au/collection/P02966.001 On the road - www.awm.gov.au/collection/H16093/ And shortly after the photo above, with names - www.awm.gov.au/collection/P01587.001 As an aside, I am amazed how the newly-completed Mitchell Library (top right) has since lost a great deal of decorative stonework in rebuilds and additions - see GoogleMapsStreetView (also the moved statue of Governor Bourke, now hiding behind the palm trees) - goo.gl/maps/lUTy2

I think the photographer (whoever he was) was on top of the OLD Public Library (NW corner Macquarie and Bent Streets) - I think it was still there and in use in 1916 -

@ Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection This is a wonderful series / album of photos, full of treasures. Do you know any more of the provenance other than the cover and title pages? Bought from John Degotardi (presumably Junior) in 1913 - are the photos the work of his father in the 1860s and 1870s? investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/photosearch/photo.asp... investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/photosearch/photo.asp...

Governor Bourke Statue, Domain, Sydney

from Powerhouse Museum

Steep Spark said:
www.adb.online.anu.edu.au/biogs/A010120b.htm A Memorial statue monument, with cannon, of Governor Sir Richard Bourke ( 1877 - 1855) near Public Library of New South Wales in the Domain reserve set up in 1788. Commissioned around 1837, when Bourke left the island.
beachcomber australia said:
Photo pre-1890 (like a lot of Henry King's photos) due to the background building being demolished for the 1891 Australian Club.
beachcomber australia said:
The cannon were moved to Centennial Park in 1925 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16383866 [http://www.flickr.com/photos/centennialparklands/4167945096/]
