1 “W.G. Lawes was the first resident missionary on the South Sea island of Niue. Lawes transferred to Papua New Guinea in 1874 until his retirement in 1906. Lawes was a pioneer missionary photographer, and the first permanent non-indigenous resident of Papua New Guinea. He created the first photographic images of the islands and its peoples as well as images of missionary work, which were distributed commercially through Henry King of Sydney. Lawes' knowledge of, and role in, Papuan life was also of paramount importance to other photographers, particularly those of colonial government and expeditionary parties, such as the Australia-based professional photographer J. W. Lindt, who acknowledged the decisive role that Lawes played in facilitating his visit to Papua New Guinea and the photographic work he was able to carry out.” From University of California Digital Library <http://digitallibrary.usc.edu/search/controller/simplesearch.htm>.

Australia/NZ set here but they show much wear and tear, having been sent to the printers of the SX Log, marked up, etc. Also some are missing and in some cases there is no catalogue number. The English MM set has gone to the British Museum (we thought on deposit though they are now claiming copyright) where they have digitized them at high resolution but seem to have no plans to put them on line. But I think there is the same problem with the English MM set --much use, marked up, photos missing.”
