Transmission Lines 1955–1974 is a project by Linda Carroli. It documents my father’s working life as a rigger and linesman with the Electric Power Transmission and its Italian parent company. He kept a photographic record of his working life and the photographs featured in this map are his personal photographs from Australia and Italy in the period 1955 to 1974. He commenced work in Italy in 1954 and remained working with EPT until 1975.
