Directe bron van verwerving of overbrenging
Donated by Mark Thompson in the late 1980s. He received the albums from his grandmother, who had lived in the house in Croydon NSW built by Cecil Green when he returned to Australia after the war. Mark's grandparents moved into the house when Mr Green was elderly to care for him. On his death the house and contents were given to them.
