Description
Album is bound in brown faux animal skin material. A fleur de lis graphic element is embossed in the center of cover. Below that the title, "Fair Tahiati [sic]," is embossed in gold lettering. The number "59" is affixed to the top of spine with glue. Images are primarily commercial souvenir photographs and postcards of Tahitians. Also some photos likely taken by a news service, of storm damage from the cyclone that took place in French Polynesia in 1906.
Light wear on surface and edges. Some small tears around spine. Interior spine has almost come apart from the outer spine and cover. Many photos have come loose and fallen from pages.
