ref. 110563A very large advertisement on thick card recently mounted and matted visible image size 508 × 778 mm; laid down on the card are six original gelatin silver photographs all sepia-toned each one approximately 165 × 230 mm. The photographs are in two rows of three with captions underneath. The top three show workers on plantations supplying goods primarily for the export market: 'Gathering Coffee Berries'; 'Cutting Rice'; and 'Cutting Sugar Cane'. The bottom three are aimed at the tourist market and depict the 'Ancient Hindu Temple Baroe-Boedoer at Djocja'; 'Ever Active Volcano Bromo Tengger Mts'; and 'Scene in the Moluccas'. A few trifling blemishes including a short scratch to one photograph but overall it is a rare example of a superb period-piece in excellent condition now protected in a custom-made Mylar pocket. unknown
