  A man's world on wheels. dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/tinker Jeff Carter (1928-2010) was Australia’s great photographer of ‘ordinary’ Australians at work and leisure. When ‘asked to leave’ Melbourne Boys High School in his final year, 1946, he took to the road with a typewriter and camera, finding work in the high country with cattle, the subject of his first photo-story. www.portrait.gov.au/portraits/2017.128/jeff-carter-with-h... I first met Jeff when he lived at Foxground near Gerringong.
