This series comprises six black and white (b/w) photographs relating to Rev. Sexton's work amongst Australian Aboriginal people. Rev. Sexton was Secretary of the Aborigines' Friends' Association for 31 years and subsequently served as President of the Association. The photographs cover the period 1930 to 1932, and include his farewell tour of 1932. They were probably taken by Ernest E Kramer (see AA 669). The prints are stored unmounted in a binder titled 'AA 1 Aborigines' Friends' Association (AFA) Photographic Prints, Album 4 of 4'.
