Contextual Information

Martin Luther Lloyd was a foundation member of the Perth Rifle Club and a leading rifle shooter in WA. The South Perth Rifle Club hosted a championship competition in October 1902. This was the precursor to the first official Kings Prize and Championship competition held in December-January 1902-3 at Karrakatta. The photo was published in the Western Mail and this copy was like from that newspaper. It was known to be framed in 1902 and hung in the clubhouse. This photo represents one of the earliest successes of a member of the Perth Rifle Club.
