Views of Egypt and Sudan 1922-1933.

StumbleUpon Toolbar | No Comments
The Griffith Institute at Oxford has put some of its collection of the photographs of Reginald St. Alban Heathcote, taken in Egypt and Sudan between 1922 and 1933, online.  A subset is in a searchable DB, but most are only available as thumbnails on a collection of 20 PDFs from which higher-resolution copies can be ordered.
