One-o-Clock - O1-1 to O1-5

01 September 2006





These were the first five postcards that I published in 1996. They show early views of Pitcairn reproduced from old black and white photographs.

O1-1 Shows a view of Pitcairn from one of the New Zealand Shipping Company's vessels.
O1-2 Is a view of the boat sheds in Bounty Bay.
O1-3 The 'Hill of Difficulty'.
O1-4 The graveyard on Pitcairn.
O1-5 Islanders in their long-boats about to trade with a passing ship.

It is not known for sure what dates the photographs were taken, but they could be from as early as 1916 up to the 1930s.

Complete sets of these postcards in mint condition are available to purchase from THE POSTCARD SHOP.
