Old Film:: Bill Franklin, my Father & Peter
I’m not certain who Bill Franklin was but I think for a while he may have lived with my grandparents in George Town, Tasmania. This photograph was scanned from a 6cm x 9cm film negative made by my grandmother Elvie Ruth Bonner (1901-1986). As my older brother Peter (nowdays better known as the CEO of Transend Networks Pty Ltd) is nine years older than me it’s a decent enough guess to put this photograph as being made somewhere in the very late 1950s. My father, Lionel Bruce Clark, is holding his first child, a boy.
