Photograph, Home and Shop of Edward Joseph Price
John Lundy-Clarke grew up in the Kalorama/Mt Dandenong area and later in life (1972-74) began to write a comprehensive history of the district working from an original settlement map in an effort to cover all areas.

This photograph shows a newer home built in 1908. It had a section used as a shop and also had a large room built that was to be used for public gatherings.
