THIS SERIES CONTAINS RESTRICTED MATERIAL

Dr Walker, a medical practitioner, observed and treated a variety of people for an array of illinesses, ranging from dental problems to infectious diseases during his travels and professional life, some of which may be documented in Mrs Walker's diaries. Doctor and Mrs Walker also observed and described some Australian Aboriginal ceremonial activity and associated materials.

A significant number of negatives have been noted for restricted access, either as being culturally sensitive or because of the graphic nature of some medical conditions.

Nitrate negatives from which prints were made are stored seperately. Where possible nitrate negatives have been associated with the print group from which they came by means of an alpha/numeric (e.g. CZ12).

A further series of records associated with the (AA 357/2) prints and these negatives is AA 357/7 Mounted lantern slides prepared for the illustration of lectures by Dr WD and Mrs MV Walker.

A partial set of copy negatives is also included in this series (see inventory).
