Seven images show Australian New Zealand and Allied troop movements in central Cairo around the coronation of the newly-installed puppet Sultan Hussein Kamel misidentified as the Khedive in the captions; nine show life in and around Mena Camp at the foot of the pyramids with numerous landmarks and several officers identified. The final six images show the visit to the camp of Sir George Reid High Commissioner in London and former Prime Minister of Australia accompanied by Brigadier General Bridges and Major General Birdwood 'This is midwinter & the temperature on this day at noon was 98 deg shade 189 in the sun' writes Galagher on a scene showing Sir George in tails and top hat. 22 items. unknown

On various papers some with chromolithograph illustrations; some with embossed debossed or die-cut elements; some with edges beveled and gilt. Texts in Arabic French German and English.

The collection includes menus from Palais Ismaïlia; Palais D’Abdine; Savoy Hotel Cairo; Ziftah Barrage; Hotel Angst; Unter den Belten bei den Chalifen-Gräbern Kairo under the straights at the Khalifa Tombs Cairo; and Ghésireh Palace Hotel. ~ Four of the menus are from the Palais D'Abdine in November and December of 1902 and bear the coat of arms of Abbas Helmi II Khedive of Egypt the last to serve as King of Egypt before being deposed by the British in 1914.

Each of bears the hand-lettered names of the guests: Moustapha Fehmi Pasha who had served as 7th Prime Minster of Egypt; and Hr.
