H.L. Downing was a commercial photographer on several expeditions in the 1920's and became a patrol officer in New Guinea in the mid 1920's. Many of his photographs have been published in Australian magazines and his work has been used by B.P. for travel brochures (several from this collection). The Australian National Library also holds photographic albums by H.L. Downing. -- Information supplied by Max Quanchi, Queensland University of Technology
