Chittenden, S. H. Photographer Subiaco...

S. H. Chittenden was a photographer who lived in Subiaco.

The Royal Historical Society of Western Australia's webpage contains photographs that Chittenden took of trams in Perth, Subiaco and surrounding suburbs. He took photographs of ordinary people catching trams from the early 1900's to the 1950's. 

During the 1930's Chittenden took a photograph of a group of mothers loading up prams and children onto the trams. The prams hung off the front of the trams. In the 1950's Chittenden took photographs of the last tram from Subiaco, the no 22 trip before the bus route took over during the 1950's.
