King Moonlight. This fine type of Aboriginal, well proportioned, with a splendid head indicative of intelligence. He is the leader of his tribe by force of character, strength of arm and dexterety in spear throwing. This Black carries a spear for throwing by the woomerah and he has a shield to defend himself from the shafts of his opponent. Info from a card of the Trans Australian Railways.
