This series is a collection of photographs and negatives of
various sizes. The collection depicts the history and services provided by the Repatriation Commission and the Repatriation
Department. The photographs provide a record of the development in the design and production of artificial limbs and other aids for the assistance of the disabled. The various institutions maintained by the department for the care of ex-service men and women are also portrayed. Included in the series are two photograph albums titled "After : the Digger carries on" which provide a record of the demobilisation and rehabilitation of WWI ex-servicemen.
The series was transferred to Australian Archives from the custody of the Office of Australian War Graves in November 1980 and was
accessioned as AA 1980/695.
The series is arranged by subject with a letter prefix for each subject. Each item within the prefix is allocated a number. For example:
