The reverse of the photographs contain Gray's handwritten notes. ...This is a Kodak film packet of colour photographs of the historic Tanswell's Commercial Hotel, Beechworth. They were taken by William Gray in 1970–71, soon after the Tanswell era ended in 1967, after almost a century. Over its long history, the hotel hosted figures such as the Governor of Victoria in 1906, and reputedly even Ned Kelly. The photos depict the hotel's prominent exterior and antique interiors and furnishings, as well as Gray’s personal interest in antiques. One photograph shows Gray’s family at a Chinese burning tower. The reverse of the photographs contain Gray's handwritten notes. He later opened his own studio in Ivanhoe. These photographs have historic significance as they depict the Tanswell's Commercial Hotel- a notable example of Australian country hotel architecture and a prominent local landmark. Furthermore, these photographs were taken prior to the restoration works hence depicting the original colour and texture of the facade's brickwork. These photographs also have artistic significance as they beautifully capture the antique interiors of the hotel.Colour rectangular photographs printed on matte photographic paper unmounted8496.1: Obverse: 9. 8496.1: Reverse: Tanswell's Historic Hotel/Beechworth/About 1970-71?/8496 8496.2: Obverse: 12. 8496.2: Reverse: Tanswell's Historic Hotel/Beechworth/Remarkable ____ ____/1971/8496 8496.3: Obverse: 10. 8496.3: Reverse: Upstairs Antique Furniture/Incl: Triple 'Love Seat'/Tanswells Historic Hotel/Beechworth/About 1970-71/8496 8496.4: Obverse: 16. 8496.4: Reverse: Tanswell's Historic Pub/Beechworth/Upstairs Antique Room/1971/8496 8496.8: Reverse: 1971?/Tanswell's Historic Hotel/Beechworth/Upstairs Antique Room/Triple "Love Seat"/Later.../I bought a red _____/'Double' Love Seat for/__ studio+_____/It was not successful/8496 8496.5: Obverse: 15. 8496.5: Reverse: Bard, Susan, Rosemary Gray/+Sasha (Dalmatian)/Probably Beechworth Cemetry/About 1970-71?/8496 8496.6: Obverse: 14. 8496.6: Reverse: Tanswells Historic Hotel/Beechworth/Upstairs Dining Room/1971/8496 8496.7: Obverse: 11. 8496.7: Reverse: Tanswells Historic Hotel/Beechworth/1st ___/Antique Lounge/About 1970-71/8496 8496.8: Obverse: 13.tanswells commercial hotel, tanswells hotel, beechworth 1970s, william gray, antique furniture
