réf. 71808The contemporary album 270 × 220 mm is bound in half leather and stippled cloth; mounted on both sides of the first 25 leaves are a total of 82 vintage gelatin silver photographs. There are 16 credited to Albert or C. Albert likely Charles Albert active at various locations in North Africa from the 1890s to the 1930s; these are 170 × 120 mm or the reverse and are mainly captioned occupational or genre images. There are 26 large-format prints 180 × 260 mm or the reverse one credited to Albert and several credited to Soler Francisco Soler active from the 1890s. Soler may be responsible for most of these views of impressive buildings streetscapes and rural scenes. There are also 40 private snapshots 85 × 85 mm; internal evidence suggests they were taken by an Edwardian English family in Tunisia. Whether they were merely on holiday or long-term residents there is difficult to say but the small group of original sketches loosely inserted makes us favour the latter. There are nine watercolours and two uncoloured ink drawings mainly 150 × 200 mm with one larger one smaller; they appear to be done by a capable child possibly one of the girls featured in the last four snapshots in the album. We purchased this album in Adelaide nearly 20 years ago; unfortunately the vendor didn't know the back-story then and we are none the wiser now. Apart from a little wear to the extremities the album is in excellent condition; the contents are in uniformly fine condition. unknown

Historically significant collection of original gelatin silver photos documenting the French medical assistance rendered to Serbia after the Great Retreat or Serbian Golgotha of 1915-1916 during WW1. Following the October of 1915 invasion of Serbia during World War I at the hands of German Austro-Hungarian and Bulgarian armies the Serbian army retreated through Albania an event sometimes called the Albanian Golgotha. During the long march some 240000 retreating Serbs military and civilian died from the cold starvation disease and at the hands of Albanian tribesmen. <…> Because of the massive loss of life the Serbian army’s retreat through Albania is considered by Serbs to be one of the greatest tragedies in their nation’s history. The survivors of the retreat were so weakened that thousands of them died from sheer exhaustion in the weeks after their rescue " See more. “While the main camps of the recuperating army were on the island of Corfu itself a contingent was sent to Bizerte as well and many of the civilian refugees were accepted by France the sick and dying mostly soldiers were treated on Vido to prevent epidemics. In spite of Allied material help the conditions of both the improvised medical facilities and many of the patients on the island resulted in a high fatality rate” Wikipedia. The album was compiled by a French doctor who served in one of the French hospital camps for Serbian soldiers most likely established near Bizerte then in the French Protectorate of Tunisia. The loosely inserted real photo postcard depicts the compiler and a group of doctors and nurses performing surgery; the manuscript text on verso mentions the compiler’s work in Bizerte. The album opens with five portraits and scenes with starved and exhausted Serbian soldiers; one is captioned “February 6 1916 after the retreat from Serbia”. Two of the images were identified as taken at the Vido Island based on the collections of the Open Heritage Platform of the French Ministry of Culture. Most photos document the treatment of Serbian soldiers in a French hospital camp most likely located near Bizerte. The images include a series of scenes of the soldiers’ arrival in train cars their disembarking and unloading of wounded the arrival of ambulance trucks to the main entrance of the hospital and the disinfection of their clothes and belongings. The hospital building looks very similar to one of French naval establishments at Ponty Bay Bizerte see more. Six images show the interior of hospital rooms with recovering soldiers laying in beds male nurses posing next to them; one photo depict a nurse showing a gangrenous leg of a soldier. Several group portraits show recovering soldiers posing at the “Pavillon le Coueur” in front of their barracks dressed in traditional costumes playing musical instruments performing a traditional Kolo dance &c. Eleven photos document official visits reviews and charity work in the camp including “distribution of sugar” by a group of ladies – apparently French. One of the military officials was identified as Admiral Émille Guépratte 1856-1939 who then served as the maritime prefect of Bizerte one of his period photos. Over a dozen images show a Serbian Orthodox funeral service: interior of a chapel with a priest and Serbian officers a kneeling crowd at a building with a sign “Depot mortuaire” funeral procession and internment. Two photos at the rear show a Serbian cemetery at “Sidi Yaya.” Overall an important collection of original photos showing the work of a French hospital camp for Serbian soldiers in Tunisia during WW1. hardcover

1943réf. 53630Tunisia 1943. Nearly Fine. Five-pointed yellow cloth star sewn onto plain beige cloth 7.3 by 9 cm. Yellow dye somewhat faded else in fine state of preservation. Specimen of the yellow star imposed on the Jewish population of Tunisia in March 1943 as a mark of the slave laboror. Tunisia was the only Islamic country to come under Nazi rule at first indirectly through the Vichy regime in France between 1940 and its liberation by Allied forces on May 7 1943. In response to the Allied invasion of Algeria and Morocco German and Italian forces invaded Tunisia on November 9 1942. By the end of November the Germans took the first anti-Jewish move by arresting four of the community leaders including Moïse Borgel the president of the Jewish congregation. "In addition to the governor-general's sympathetic attitude -- and in some degree to the pro-Jewish attitude of Bey Sidi Mohammed al-Mounsaf -- the Italians also in practice interfered with the application of the anti-Jewish laws" E.H. The dignitaries were released after a week following the intervention of the mayor of Tunis and the Italian consul. Because of objections by the Italians the edict to wear the star does not appear to have been generally enforced with rigor and was only formally imposed in two cities Sfax and Tunis. While 5000 Jews had originally been put on forced labor in thirty locations and camps along the front line "at the time of the collapse and surrenter in early May 1943 only sixteen hundred Jews were employed on forced labor" E.H. Given the relatively small labor force and the lack of zeal in imposing the anti-Jewish ordinances it is clear why so few of these yellow badges have survived. References: I. Gutman ed.

1841Very Good Arabic Original autograph document/letter sealed by Ahmad I of Tunisia. 54x42 cm. 1 p. 6 long lines. The letter includes full of poetic praise. It must be sent after successful diplomatic intercourse with Naples. Ferdinand II (Ferdinando Carlo) was King of the Two Sicilies from 1830 until his early death in 1859. It starts with 'Thank God alone', and goes on 'From poor Ahmad Pasha to Lord Almighty Field Marshal Amîr [ruler]. Sealed by the seal of Ahmad Basha Beg including an impressive qasidah in Arabic. Ahmed I (ibn Mustafa), born 2 December 1805 in Tunis died May 1855 at La Goulette, was the tenth Husainid Bey of Tunis, ruling from 1837 until his death. He was responsible for the abolition of slavery in Tunisia in 1846. He succeeded his father Mustafa Bey on 10 October 1837. He had grand ambitions - to expand his army and create a modern navy; to build a new royal residence, a mint and modern institutions of education but neither he nor his brother-in-law the young Mustapha Khaznadar who served as his finance minister, had a clear idea of what such initiatives would cost. As a result, many of his projects became expensive failures which damaged the financial health of the country. Soon after his accession, Ahmad Bey received the traditional Firman from the Sublime Porte which formally invested him with authority to rule from the Ottoman Empire and furnished him with the insignia of office. The Ottoman envoy, Osman Bey, arrived in la Goulette on 15 May 1838 onboard a frigate. The following day, Osman Bey made his official entry into Tunis on horseback, preceded by all the ministers of the beylical cabinet who went before him until he was two leagues from the city. Before he were carried the sword of honor and the caftan to be presented to the Bey. He was escorted by spahis and followed by a large contingent of regular troops an Arab cavalry. Three days after his official entry into the city, the envoy presented himself at the Bardo Palace to formally invest Ahmad Bey with his insignia of office and present gifts. Named as a Divisional General in the Ottoman army in May 1838, he was later promoted by the Sultan to the rank of Marshal on 14 August 1840. This was the first time that a Bey of Tunis had held a rank higher than Divisional General. The purpose of these honors was to emphasize the supremacy of the Ottoman Empire over the Regency of Tunis. Under a treaty with France signed in 1830 by Hussein Bey, a piece of land in Carthage had been ceded to allow the erection of a monument to Louis IX of France who had died there during the Eighth Crusade. On 25 August 1840, the first stone was laid in the cathedral of Carthage. Ahmad Bey also permitted the Christian community of Tunis, consisting mainly of European merchants, to enlarge their small church near the Bab el Bhar. In June and July 1846 the Duke of Montpensier, son of King Louis Philippe of France visited Tunis and Carthage. He was received with great solemnity by Ahmad Bey. According to the Tunisian historian Mohamed Bayram V, Bey's reforms were focused on state structures, the army, and education. He established a modern structure of government and gave his high officials the title of 'minister'. His senior ministers were his Grand Vizier Mustafa Sahib at-Taba'a, Mustapha Khaznadar, Minister of Finance and of the Interior, Mustafa Agha as Minister of War, Mahmoud Khodja as Minister of the Navy and Giuseppe Raffo as Foreign Minister. At certain times Mahmoud Ben Ayed also served as Trade Minister, Kuchuk Muhammad in the honorific post of Minister in charge of the security home of Ahmad Bey's reforms wasted money, such as the large frigate built at La Goulette that could not make it through the channel to the sea. of Tunis and Mohamed Lasram IV as Minister of the Pen. The historian Ibn Abi Dhiaf was the Bey's private secretary. Among Ahmad Bey's successes may be counted as the abolition of slavery in January 1846. To this may be added the formation of the military academy at...
