New Guinea Social Studies Pictures for Standard IV

One hundred and thirteen black and white photographs, all captioned, all measuring 25 x 31cms., of aspects of contemporary life in Papua New Guinea, and produced for educational purposes in Australia. The images are divided into twenty categories - fashions, timber, transport, gold - all of which portray the country in a period of progress thanks to a Western cultural and economic model while many of the others, see opposite, stress the traditional and, to us, exotic elements.

Original box, 28x32x5cms, containing all the 113 photographs, key to the categories and images, and a location map for the source of the images. Box is rubbed and worn, label frayed, 'Education' written boldly across lid and the photographs are all fine.
