I would update the titke with an ID, but can somebody please confirm where Con Rhee was working in 1981 & 1983. Was he still at his own studio in Tasmania?

Only a moderator can change the title. That is why I asked about confirmation of the location.

For now, I will add his name to the title but the location would be good sometime.
