1928réf. 12860Various locations in Hawaii and Japan 1928. 12 leaves illustrated with 123 mounted sepia-toned photographs many captioned in the image area occasional manuscript captions on the album leaves. Oblong folio. Contemporary pictorial cloth illustrated with various Japanese motifs string tied. Minor wear to cloth. Internally clean. Very good. An attractive and informative vernacular photograph album memorializing the experiences of Protestant missionaries in the Pacific. Protestant missionaries came to Hawaii starting in the 1820s and eventually became quite socially and politically influential. The first Protestant missionaries arrived in Japan in the mid-1840s. They were relegated to treaty ports and prohibited from proselytizing but once these restrictions were lifted they were fairly successful with 300 churches and 34000 converts by 1889. Their main avenue was education and by the 1920s they were well established in this sector. The present album of photographs were taken by an American missionary in Hawaii and Japan in 1927 and 1928. It is not entirely clear whether the photographer did any missionary work in Hawaii or if it was just a stop on the way to Japan; the photos from Hawaii show Honolulu harbor from the deck of the President Madison the "Club House" and Diamond Head. The photographs from Japan are more clearly missionary. The photographer was involved in teaching in Kyoto; captions include "Kami Kyoku Bishamon Cho" listed as a theological school in the 1928 Japan Mission Year Book "Japanese Language School" "The Faculty" "Nihongo Faculty" and "St Agnes Ena -- Music." There are two St. Agneses in the Year Book both middle schools one in Tokyo and one in Kyoto. Two photos of an older Japanese man in a clerical collar captioned "Mr Hayakawa" suggest this is the St. Agnes in Kyoto as Mr. K. Hayakawa is listed as the head of that school. Other individuals listed in the Year Book include Sally Rembert Thora Johnson and "Maxine" who is probably Maxine Schannep with the ABCFM. Generally the school shots are exteriors of buildings and people posing outside of them; there are also shots of Christmas trees at St. Agnes the students of "Helen’s Kindergarten" in Koriyama girls in school uniform with deer at Nara Park and several of the nurse's home at St. Luke's Hospital in Tokyo. Other photos show life around Kyoto and other cities including Nikko and Fukui. Most of the men are in Western dress while the women and children wear kimono. Two photos of Buddhist monks included in the album were taken by Japanese photographer Kurokawa Suizan; these show a KomusÅ in a tengai hat playing the flute and a kasa-hatted monk on the steps of a building. Finally some uncaptioned shots show a procession taking place in front of an audience. Some in the procession carry flags a few are on horseback and a few carry plants on their heads and part of the procession carries a litter. Overall the album documents both religious education and everyday life in late 1920s Japan; of particular interest to historians of Protestant missionaries. unknown
1939réf. 12870Various locations mostly in India 1939. Two contemporary photograph albums bound in matching black cloth. Album 1: 47 leaves illustrated with 347 mounted photographs including a handful of real photo postcards profusely captioned in white pencil on album leaves. Album 2: 30 leaves illustrated with 285 photographs including some real photo postcards and commercial images with only a few manuscript captions. Oblong quarto. A unique pictorial record of American Christian missionary service in India during the years of the Great Depression detailing the life and work of Seventh Day Adventists Edward and Edna Mabel Pohlman. Edward Pohlman 1906-1970 and Edna Mabel 1906-1997 married in 1928 and served in the Northern India Union NIU Section which was part of the Southern Asia Division from 1929 to 1946. While in India it appears that the Pohlman family lived at least in Mussoorie Roorkee and Poona during which time they had one son Edward Wendell born in Punjab in 1933. The father Edward received an M.A. and PhD from Ohio State University. The couple likely lived in Roorkee early on where Pohlman likely taught at Roorkee Adventist College as there are images of the faculty at Roorkee their bungalow and so forth. They may also have been associated with the Vincent Hill School in Mussoorie of which there are several images. He definitely taught theology at Spicer Missionary College Now Spicer Adventist University in Poona Pune and became president of Spicer in 1939 a position he held until 1946. Spicer College was the church’s flagship educational institution in India. Pohlman also held SDA conference positions including educational and missionary volunteer secretary for the Southern Asia Division. The SAD NIU section focused on establishing mission schools doing medical work publishing and direct preaching aiming to spread the gospel this way. The organization worked to establish churches and develop indigenous leadership and self-supporting missions in communities across northern India. The albums only pertain to his time in India but following his time there Pohlman taught at the Western College for Women in Oxford Ohio then in 1958 was a Fulbright lecturer in sociology and anthropology at the University of Karachi and then served as executive director of the U. S. Educational Foundation in Pakistan. In 1960 he joined Queens College in Charlotte North Carolina where he taught and was head of the sociology and anthropology departments until his death. He was fluent in Urdu and Hindustani. The first few images in the first album document the Pohlman's trip from New York to India as a young married couple in 1929. They spent some time in England and the Holy Land before arriving in India. The first images from India show their first house in Mussoorie and the Vincent Hill School which was part of the SDA educational system. Other early India images feature Najababad including a dispensary a village meeting and their colleagues the Kimble's bungalow there plus an image of a building captioned "Northwest Union Headquarters of our work" in Lucknow. The next group of photos are of Roorkee in 1931 picturing another SDA school the Roorkee Adventist College the faculty a group of students a sewing class a Bible class and a dispensary. Numerous images include Edna and Edward as well as their colleagues the Steeves the Kimbles the Garners and others. One shows Edna and four young men and is captioned "my first English class." Several historic photographs relate to important SDA events meetings and facilities. One of the bigger photographs shows a very large group and is captioned "workers from India Burma & Ceylon at Poona SDA Council 1931." Another shows the Division Headquarters at Poona and a third shows attendees from the Northwest India Union that attended the Poona Council in 1931. Another group of images shows workers and students at the SDA Colporteur Institute a school that trained people to evangelize and pass out literature. Another shows 17 Abbott Road in Lucknow the location of the SAD Publishing House. There are also images of the Seventh Day Adventist Training School many uncaptioned images of SDA student and graduate groups and some of Edna or Edward with their students. Other photographs illustrate the missionaries' lives through their bungalows outings trips to Kashmir a large group of images Lahore and Delhi riding elephants celebrating Christmas and more. Other images show local people harvesting sugar cane bathing in the Ganges a pilgrim knee-walking a street sewing service Indian weddings a group in front of the Seventh Day Adventist Training School many uncaptioned images of SDA large and small student and/or graduate groups and more. The albums also provide images of the couple's missionary colleagues including several who traveled out to India with them and some who were especially notable. These include: John Milton Steeves 1905-1998 an important SDA missionary and educator who became a career diplomat serving as acting ambassador to Jakarta Indonesia deputy assistant secretary of state for Far Eastern Affairs 1959-62 and ambassador to Afghanistan 1966-69. The Steeves family lived in Western Washington between 1919 and 1927 where Steeves graduated from Walla Walla College an SAD-affiliated school and the University of Washington. Raleigh and Edna Garner from Nampa Idaho who served sixteen years in India then pastored in Idaho. Garner also graduated from Walla Walla College. Ray LeRoy R.L. Kimble 1890-1972 and his wife Jessie M. Estep Kimble. Kimble was a pastor and missionary who served in India from around 1915 to 1950 and was president of the Northern India Union Section from 1946 to 1950. His wife was principal of the North Agra Mission Girl's School from 1930 to 1932; earlier they ran a sanitarium at Bombay. After India's independence Kimble was part of a delegation in August 1947 that met with Nehru Gandhi and Jinnah to explain the role of the Seventh Day Adventist Church in India. Marion Hulda Belchambers 1886-1949 a pioneer teacher administrator and publishing house pioneer who became secretary and treasurer of the Northwest / Northern India Union in 1923. The two albums document important contributions made by the Pohlmans and their colleagues to education and healthcare in India and also provide visual documentation of important Seventh Day Adventist events and meetings and insights into the daily lives of missionaries of the period. unknown
1911réf. 5251London: March 29 1911. Very good. 1p. Previously folded. Contemporary manuscript annotation is left margin. Light toning. A brief but interesting letter dated March 29 1911 from Marshall Broomhall Editorial Secretary of England's China Inland Mission to the Rev. Arthur H. Smail a prominent American Missionary in China. Broomhall had recently published a book Islam in China in which he promoted the use of Arabic-speaking missionaries to proselytize Chinese Muslims. The book used information received from Smail about the Chinese Muslim population but Broomhall at certain points managed to confuse Beijing Peking and nearby Tongzhou Tungchow while apparently attempting to criticize Smail's statements. This letter apologizes to Smail for his error though the American seems to have still been cross -- having received the letter Smail noted in the left margin "Two pages gives to demolishing what I never said!

1955réf. 6091Various locations in Costa Rica and Panama 1955. Very good. Three photograph albums: 10 leaves illustrated with thirty photographs most with manuscript annotations in white pencil; 22 leaves illustrated with seventy-one photographs most with manuscript annotations; 20 leaves illustrated with forty-nine photographs each with manuscript annotation. Each album oblong octavo in different colored cloth bindings string tied. Minor overall wear with a handful of loose photographs. A collection of three annotated vernacular photograph albums documenting the activities of Methodist missionaries in Costa Rica and Panama in the mid-20th century. The photographs picture the subjects traveling in the two countries scenes inside and outside the classroom views of native peoples and dwellings a mission in Costa Rica and the associated language school headed by Denton Powell Royster who is pictured here and identified as "Pastor Royster". The images capture missionaries on the road at roadside picnics enjoying leisure time at meetings and dinner celebrations and engaging in similar activities. Many of the subjects are named providing excellent opportunities for deeper study; individuals here include Stan Sheldon Jean Spahr or Spahn Virginia Miller Virginia Forkell Naomi Calkine Lois Henry Lorraine Roth Betty Brown Gordon and Marilyn Marken Norm Piersma Wally DeSmet John Gilmore and others. The album was compiled by a female missionary likely a member of the Benz family as one image is captioned "Peggy Daddy Mom and Steve Benz." Another photograph of a young woman is captioned "Me enroute to the falls at Catalina." She also identifies herself in other photos including one of her swimming at Ojo de Agua but never seems to indicate her name. She appears to have been an instructor at the language school; one image shows her and a few others in "Phonetics" class and another pictures her with other teachers of the grammar class. A couple of the image indicate some of the missionaries are part of a "Honduran prayer meeting." Other scenes of interest feature a group photograph of the language school "scenes from a woodworking shop on our paseo to the Roysters" activities in a coffee processing plant and views of the Irazu volcano among others. The indigenous or local peoples pictured here include the Baltadano family of the Central American Church a woman named Angela de Varga an oxcart operator in Costa Rica a young woman identified as "Maria una buena empleada" a man named Don Antonio and a few others.
