Description
Bound in textured black material. The title "The Society Islands" is embossed in center of cover in gold lettering. The number "60" is affixed to the top of spine with glue. Images are of Tahiti, Moorea, Bora Bora, some taken by London, some are souvenir photos and postcards. Images are primarily of the natural scenery and people of the islands. There are also several posed portraits of Ernest Darling, know as the Nature Man, taken by London.
This album has been heavily used. Surface wear is light, but spine is split on its right side, the left side of front cover, and interior binding has broken away from the inside back cover. There are no contact prints for images of Ernest Darling, the Nature Man, on pages 35-37.
