trove.nla.gov.au/work/185779833 - similar pic of this chap in the NLA's Fairfax Collection. I gather this pic was taken at Victoria Barracks, in Sydney, on 11th February, 1926, when officers from the Staff Corps entertained officers from the visiting Japanese cruiser HIJMS Iwate at a tennis party. This chap also appears here...this pic was published in the Sydney Daily Telegraph on 12th February, 1926 (see pic lower lhs) trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/245844234 www.flickr.com/photos/anmm_thecommons/7258625606/in/datep...

This pic was evidently taken on 22nd February, 1927, when the Australian Commonwealth Band returned to Sydney on the S.S. Marama. The location was evidently the Margaret St wharf, Darling Harbour...

trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/223475425 - the pic was used in an advert for the band that appeared in the Sydney Sun on 23rd February 1927...

trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/117696928 - Truth, 23rd February, 1927...a cut and paste version of the pic also appears here...

The ship was built in 1922 and was 4086 grt. Owned by the Thompson Steam Shipping Co and sunk 1 April 1942 by U 160 in the North Atlantic. The ship was unusual, having corrugated sides but these are not apparent in the photo.
