Dr Charles Zimmler’s Gulgong Dispensary appeared on Australia’s paper $10 note in 1966, but this is not Dr Zimmler. Standing out front is Henry Kirke White, who used to manage Barnes' chemist shop. At the time of this photograph, Zimmler was serving six months in Bathurst gaol for manslaughter of an infant to whom he had prescribed ammonia. If you look closely, you can see the designer of the 1966 $10 note altered the position of people in the photographs, placing Henry White in front of the Circulating Library.
