778. [Photo Album] British in Nigeria circa 1910s. Red cloth album (25cm.). Contains over 150 photos. Most Approx. 6cm. x 11cm. All appear to be amateur snapshots. No captions. Foxing or fading has affected most of the photos; otherwise, they are clear with good detail. About half are photos of white people (and almost half of those include young men in what appears to be British Royal Navy uniforms). About one-sixth are photos of Africans. About one-fourth are scenes in Nigeria. A few photos show a large boiler(?) in a field. Another photo shows what appears to be a World War I era Red Cross signature quilt. Another photo is of a group of white girls (with "red" crosses on their clothing). 475.00

779. [Photo Album] Forty-Eight Photos of Native African Life Circa 1920s. Photos approximately 14 x 8cm. Inserted into openings, two to a page on both sides of all 12 leaves in an album. Green cloth. Extremities rubbed. Short tear at base of backstrip. Photos are of very good quality with interesting detail. No captions or photographer's names in the album or on the back of the photos (we looked at the backs of several). The album is English. White figures appear in three or four of the photos making us suspect that this album depicts a European farm or plantation. The rural location is uncertain (to us). Native homes in the pictures are round huts, made of some kind of thatch with the top pointed on some. The European home in long and rectangular with baked mud walls and a thatched roof. A few photos show native boats along a shore or beside a body of water. Several photos show efforts at irrigation; the crop appears to be maize. 275.00

780. [Photo Album] A Hunting Trip in What Appears to be the Sudan. 47 photos. Generally about 8 x 13cm. Undated (our guess is 1910-1920). No captions or other identification on the photos. Quality of the photos varies but generally clear with good detail. Inserted in album windows, one to a page, in a small (21 x 15cm.) oblong album containing 24 leaves. Binding broken between two of the leaves and the cover is spotted. Stamped on one album page: Geo. A. Harmer, Photographic Chemist, 47, 49 South St., Eastbourne. Good. Four photos of a large unidentified English country home and one of an English church. The rest of the photos are of a hunting trip somewhere in East Africa. Several photos are of animals which have been shot or of the African members of the safari. Some photos show horses which members of the party rode and camels on which supplies (and some riders) appear to have been transported. One photo is of a train station. The only sign, which is only partially visible, says Dekafa El Cheikh below which is something in Arabic. 275.00

781. [Photo Album] 1st Album of Photographs (with Few Exceptions) taken by Charles A. Rowe during Journey from Durban to Cairo, 1943. [title written inside front cover]. 194 photos and 17 postcards (the "few exceptions"). Mounted (some corner mounts but most glued) four to twelve on a page. 126 of the photos are small (generally about 5.5 x 5.5cm.); the balance are larger (generally 9.5 x 9.5cm.). Perhaps 90% of the photos have inked caption in the lower margin or on the album page beneath the photo. Amateur photographer who took decent but not great pictures. The postcards are standard tourist cards of Bulawayo, Victoria Falls, etc. Tied oblong photograph album with an imitation crocodile-skin-patterned cover. Extremities rubbed on album. Mr. Rowe, about whom we have no further specific information, appears in the photos to have been a rather slender, bespectacled, middle-aged white man (English or South African?) who wandered up the eastern side of Africa, much of the time by bicycle. An early caption is dated 7/9/43 ("Looking back to Drummond Natal int. Valley of 1000 hills"). He rode through the Wankie Game Reserve in Southern Rhodesia and then took several photographs of Victoria Falls. Nine small pictures record his visit to Lusaka. Other places recorded in the captions under one of more photos include Ndola, Tenke, Albertville, Ujiji, Taborah, Mwanza, Jinja, Nairobi, Rutshuru, Nyaragongo, Goma, Kiscayi, Lake Kivu and Costermansville (the last photo in this album). Presumably there was another album (or albums) recording the rest of his journey. 375.00

[former owner's title written on endpaper]. 63 photos, mounted two to a side on album leaves in a small oblong (20 x 14cm.) album. Brief captions under each photo -- most are in pencil and some are quite light and hard for us to decipher. Photo size varies but most are about 10 x 7cm. Most photos faded, some severely. Backstrip cloth (album) was detached and has been glued down. Good. Brady appears to have been an Australian, probably a soldier.

783. [Photo Album] Somewhere in Africa, circa 1911-1921. [our title]. 232 photos. All approximately 10 x 6cm. Inserted four to a page into display windows (outlined in brown) in three identical twelve-leaved photo albums. No photographer identified. Backstrips chipped on the albums. Brief inked captions on only a dozen (or so) of the photos. The photos can be removed from their display windows with some effort. It is these captions which provide our dating. Several photos are actually heavily-trimmed real photo postcards. Some of the other photos also appear to have been trimmed. Most photos have glue marks on the back, suggesting that they were originally pasted in some other album before being inserted in these display windows. Most of the photos are of native Africans and these photos do not have captions. One photo shows three European men standing in front of part of a long one-story building with a sign identifying it as the "Intertropical Hotel." Another photo is of in interior of a railroad club car with two signs hanging on the wall ("Terms are strictly Cash" and "White Horse Whiskey." Similarly many of the trimmed real photo postcards have English phrases on the back, such as "Post Card" or "Address Only." However, almost all of the captions are found on the 20 photos of various species of big game and these captions are in French. The bookseller from whom we purchased the album believed that the album contains photos of the Belgian Congo, perhaps because one of the albums contains a few later photos of some Europeans including a 1941 Registration Card for someone living in Antwerp. Nonetheless we think it more likely that most or all of the photos were taken in one or more British colonies in East or Central Africa. We lean toward Uganda. 850.00
