This series consists of twelve albumen prints bound in one hard cover album. Eleven of these prints are studio portraits of Aboriginal men, women and children and one print of an Aboriginal family outside a house.

Each print is mounted on an individual page with typescript titles below the image.

The National Library of Australia (NLA) holds an album titled 'Souvenir album of Victorian Aboriginals, kings, queens etc.' which is available via the Pictures Reading Room Call Number: PIC Album 30C NK4165.

The images of 'Queen Mary - Ballarat Tribe' (see AA 566/1/3) and 'King Billy and his two wives' (see AA 566/1/8) in the South Australian Museum's album differs from the NLA album which has two entirely different prints although they are titled the same.

This item was formerly identified as Acc. No. 2169.
