Bahrain Views - 12 Real Photographs for your Snap Album

Descripción

Black printed and stitched tan card wallet 8x11.5cm, opening to reveal two pockets containing 12 original b/w photographs, each 8.3x5.5cm, captioned in the prints. The condition of the folder and photos is remarkably fine with light wear. The photos are captioned as follows: Manamah from the sea; the Palace; Adari; Jezira; Bab al-Bahrain; Juma Mosque; Twin minarets [a view of Khamis Mosque]; Bahrain laundry; American Mission Hospital; BOAC Resthouse; a pearling boat; date season. They are undated, but appear to be 1960s. The American Mission Hospital took this name in 1962 (changed from the Mason Memorial Hospital). The BOAC Resthouse was still operational in the 1960s, the only hotel prior to the opening of Gulf Hotel in 1969. Ashraf Brothers formed in Manama in 1913, and by the 1920s and late 1930s had become well established as importers and exporters, Government and Naval contractors, and sole distributors for several companies (Companies of the Arab World 1993/94; correspondence on QDL).
