3 works in 1 volume. Ad 1: Official publication, presented to the British Houses of Parliament, containing correspondence concerning the German settlement at Angra Pequena or Lüderitz, Namibia. The correspondence starts with four letters written in 1880, the first letter including a translation of a German article expressing the German interest in the region. The following letters and telegrams were written in 1883 and 1884, starting with letters from July 1883, asking whether the rumours that a German trading company has bought Angra Pequena harbour are true. The land had indeed been bought by Adolf Lüderitz (1834-1886), who founded a trading post at Angra Pequena and renamed it Lüderitz. The majority of the following letters discuss the British attitude towards Germany and the new settlement, including evidence of British claim and authority in the area and orders to send gunboats to the bay. The folding map shows a large part of Namibia's coast line.Ad 2: Official publication, presented to the British Houses of Parliament, containing a letter by the Earl of Derby, Colonial Secretary, concerning Lüderitz, with four appendices, including letters and statements from 1867 and 1868. It becomes clear that Britain doesn't have a solid claim on the territory.Ad 3: Official publication, presented to the British Houses of Parliament, containing further correspondence concerning Lüderitz from July to November 1884. Some letters deal with the official statement of the German government to treat Lüderitz as a German protectorate: German South West Africa; others with the exact boundaries of the territories belonging to Germany, Portugal and Britain.With a small tear along the fold of the map, a few small spots, some margins slightly frayed. Overall in very good condition. Modern blue paper wrappers. With a folding map in ad 1 and a full-page map in ad 3. Pages: X, 60; 13, [1]; X, 75, [1 blank] pp.

None. Condición: None. 48 loose original gelatin silver photos (including ten duplicates), from ca. 9x12 cm (3 ½ x 4 ½ in) to ca. 4,5x9,5 cm (1 ¾ x 3 ½ in). With ten cabinet portrait gelatin silver photos, mounted on the original card, image size 11x16 cm (4 ¼ x 6 ¼ in) to ca. 6x9 cm (2 ¼ x 3 ½ in). Five cabinet portrait photos have gilt- or colour-printed names of the studios on the mounts (Berlin, Breslau, Königsberg, Colmar, Mannheim); eight have period pencil or pen captions on verso, identifying people (three are also dated "1901," "1902" or "1906"). A few photos with minor creases, several mildly faded, three cabinet portrait photos are slightly soiled, one slightly scratched, but overall a very good collection of strong interesting photos. Interesting collection of early original gelatin silver photos of German Southwest Africa (Namibia), apparently taken and collected by a German military officer during his service in the colony in ca. 1900s. Among the identified photos are three views of the Sesfontein Fort (Kunene Region of modern-day northwestern Namibia): a general one and two close-up views of a wall with a damaged roof and corrugated iron sheets laid on the ground. Other images show another German fort with a waving flag, a German farm, military men in the countryside, posing with hunted antelopes, an oxen-driven wagon, Namibian hills, deserts and bush country, portraits of native Namibians wearing traditional and German-influenced outfits, people peeling corn, riding donkeys, &c. The cabinet portrait photos include four pictures of "Heinrich [Penk?]" (two taken in German Southwest Africa in 1901 and 1902), as well as of "Rave" and two unidentified German officers (all three wearing Schutztruppe uniform). Overall an interesting extensive collection of early original photos of Namibia and its people in the early 20th century.
