Description:
Photographer identified from another copy held in the collection of the State Library of NSW. At the time this album was compiled Bentham was occupied by Albert Glaze Cureton and his family. Photographs from this album were first published in the June 1918 issue of the magazine "Properties & Premises" a monthly publication of the auctioneers Hardie & Gorman. The property was first offered for private sale in June 1918 and then at public auction in September 1918.
In November 1920, following the sale of the property, the 'complete household appointments and effects contained in the residence' were sold at auction by James R. Lawson.
