By: Spencer Digby Studios; Standish & Preece (Firm)
Reference: PAColl-10792
Description: Comprises several photographs of Sir Arthur Telford Donnelly and William Ian McLaren Donnelly, including images relating to Arthur Donnelly's occupation as Crown Solicitor and his service in World War I, and Ian Donnelly's work as a journalist. Most photographs taken by unidentified photographers between 1914 and 1955; identified photographers include Standish & Preece, and Spencer Digby Studios. Some colour photographic prints added by the Donnelly family circa 2019. Includes photographs of Ian Donnelly in his capacity as a journalist, and with members of the Donnelly family, possibly his own children. Also includes photographs of Arthur Telford Donnelly taken during World War One; with sporting associates; in his capacity as Chief Prosecutor; during the August 1949 investiture ceremony in which he was knighted by Governor General, Lord Bernard Freyberg; at Beath’s Lounge, with other war veterans; with the Bank of New Zealand and Beath and Company Boards of Directors; and during a 1951 visit to the Mayor of Dunedin, with Lord and Lady Jowett. Some photographs relating to Arthur Donnelly's service in World War One have contemporary photographs of medals pasted verso, and are annotated with contextual information. Several of the photographs are annotated with captions and contextual information; many are pasted on paper which features typed annotations, and many feature handwritten annotations verso of the print. Many of the photographs appear to have been cut from a photograph album and feature photographs of the Donnelly family, not relating to Arthur or Ian's careers. Some photographs feature newspaper articles pasted verso; it is unclear whether these relate to the content of the images. Title supplied by Library. Not all names associated with this collection have been indexed. Arthur Telford Donnelly was appointed Crown Solicitor for Christchurch in 1921, and became chairman of the Bank of New Zealand in April 1937.
