The material captures village life family groups communal activity and built spaces associated with missionary and administrative expansion providing direct visual evidence of how Indigenous people in New Guinea were photographed during a period of accelerating colonial intervention. These images are historically significant for the study of Indigenous life under colonial rule especially where domestic ceremonial and communal scenes appear alongside roads chapels and other introduced structures. Twenty-two black-and-white photographs including real photo postcards and original prints depicting Indigenous men women and children in both portrait and wider landscape formats. The archive includes captioned views such as "Native Huts New Guinea" "A Chapel in New Guinea" "One of Many New Guinea Highways" and "A Native Family of New Guinea."

A second grouping centers on colonial-built environments including palm-lined roads formal structures mission buildings and organized settlements. Closer portraits emphasize bodily presentation hairstyle adornment posture and dress while broader views show the spatial relationship between Indigenous communities and the altered colonial landscape. Sizes vary with the group consisting of postcard-format and similarly sized original photographs. Produced during a period of intensified missionary presence road building and colonial administration in New Guinea these photographs document the coexistence of Indigenous continuity and imposed colonial systems.

1940réf. 230081940. Photographs of Indigenous communities in New Guinea during World War II document direct encounters between local populations and United States military personnel as Allied forces established operational infrastructure across the island beginning in 1942. Taken in the early to mid 1940s these images record the presence of Indigenous men women and children alongside uniformed servicemen situating them within a major Pacific theater of war where military expansion reshaped local environments and social conditions. The archive supports research into Indigenous history wartime contact zones and the impact of global conflict on colonial territories. Archive consists of 26 original black and white photographic prints likely silver gelatin depicting group portraits staged encounters and environmental views in New Guinea. Multiple images show Indigenous individuals arranged in lines or clusters often positioned with U.S. servicemen standing behind or among them indicating organized or facilitated photographic documentation. Dress and adornment vary with women wearing traditional skirts and beadwork and men and children appearing in customary attire. Several photographs include visible military infrastructure including aircraft fuselages transport planes and trucks suggesting proximity to airstrips supply depots or forward bases. A group of images captures a ceremonial dance or ritual with participants wearing elaborate headdresses and woven garments photographed in mid action. These photographs were produced during a period when New Guinea became a strategic center of Allied military operations in the Pacific bringing new systems of transportation labor demands and administrative control into Indigenous regions. Wartime conditions altered patterns of daily life through the introduction of foreign personnel the construction of military facilities and the expansion of colonial oversight. Visual documentation of these encounters reflects both the logistical realities of military presence and the asymmetrical relationships between Indigenous communities and external authority.

1936réf. 230101936. Neuendettelsau Mission publisher. Bilder aus der Neuguinea Mission late 1920s-mid 1930s documents German Protestant missionary activity and Indigenous life in New Guinea during the interwar period following the end of formal German colonial rule. Produced as a cigarette card album with printed German captions the work records village life subsistence practices missionary institutions and ceremonial activity situating Indigenous communities within a visual framework shaped by religious and colonial perspectives. The album supports research into Pacific history missionary networks and the role of photography in documenting and interpreting Indigenous societies under colonial influence. Oblong album containing a substantial series of mounted photographic cigarette cards on captioned leaves with printed German text throughout. The cover title reads "Bilder aus der Neuguinea-Mission" and includes a commemorative image captioned "Gedenkt des 50 jährigen Jubiläums der Neuendettelsauer Mission auf Neuguinea!" depicting three Indigenous men in traditional dress with spears. The album includes numerous images of daily life in coastal New Guinea including fishing hunting boat building village environments and ceremonial gatherings with captions such as "Mit Pfeil und Bogen" and "Mit dem Jagenetz" describing subsistence practices. Additional images depict mission infrastructure including churches schools workshops and settlements alongside scenes of education labor and communal activity. Photographs are systematically arranged and mounted presenting both ethnographic subjects and missionary-built environments within a unified visual sequence. The album was produced during a transitional period when German missionary societies continued operations in New Guinea under Australian administration after World War I maintaining institutional presence despite the loss of formal colonial control. The Neuendettelsau Mission founded in Bavaria in the nineteenth century had established networks of religious and educational institutions in the region contributing to broader systems of cultural transformation and documentation. The images reflect both local practices and the interpretive framework imposed by missionary observers revealing how photography functioned within colonial and religious contexts to classify record and disseminate knowledge about Indigenous populations. Mild toning foxing and edge wear to covers and pages; cards remain securely mounted with images largely clean and crisp; overall very good condition. This album provides sustained visual documentation of missionary activity and Indigenous life in New Guinea during the interwar period. unknown

1885réf. 187509Australia: The Geographical Society of Australasia 1885 & 1886. Two elaborately decorated manuscripts presented to Captain Henry Charles Everill congratulating him and the members of the New Guinea Exploratory Expedition on a successful voyage. The quarto manuscript was presented by the Geographical Society of Australasia who funded the expedition and the folio by the Victorian Branch of the Geographical Society specifically 12 members of which have signed it at the end. Everill's party left Sydney on 10 June 1885 and returned home on 3 December 1885 having spent five months in New Guinea. The object of the expedition was to map unexplored territory in the Fly river region to gather information on local flora and fauna and to perform an anthropological investigation into the indigenous people. However the underlying motivations of the expedition were likely linked to Australian state expansion into the Pacific. In 1883 the Colony of Queensland attempted to annex the east of the island of New Guinea and then again shortly after the federation of Australia in 1901. The expedition left Sydney in the steamer Bonito journeying to New Guinea and up the Fly river into the Strickland River. The river was named during the expedition in honour of Sir Edward Strickland the president of the Geographical Society. The Bonito was stranded in the Strickland at which point Everill led a party another 80 miles up the river in a whaleboat.

1911réf. 300656Verlag Dietrich Reimer (Ernst Vohsen) Berlin 1911. 4°. Brauner Original-Ganzleinenband mit blau-schwarz geprägten Titeln und Verzierungen im Original-Schutzumschlag. VII, 336 Tafeln mit 764 Zinkätzungen, eine mehrfach gefaltete Karte "Völkerkarte von Kaiser-Wilhelmsland mit dem Verzeichnis der Tafeln von Band 2 " im Maßstab 1:2000000. Der vorliegende Band hat einen Wasserschaden erlitten, dadurch sind Feuchtränder vorhanden. Die Deckel sind etwas verzogen. Wegen der Kunstdruckpapierverwendung ist der Buchblock trotzdem fest, die Blätter wenig im Randbereich gewellt. Ich habe jedes Blatt einzeln trennen müssen, wodurch teilweise am seitlichen Rand Fehlstellen entstanden sind. Diese sind auf einigen Blättern bis zu einem Centimeter breit, niemals jedoch reichen Sie in die Abbildungen hinein. Der Innenerhalt ist sauber. [7 Warenabbildungen]
