A Month in Honolulu cover title

19143378Various locations in Southern California and Hawaii 1914. About very good. Sixty-one leaves illustrated with 214 mounted silver gelatin photographs most with manuscript annotations in white ink; plus numerous mounted postcards menus and assorted ephemera. Oblong quarto. Contemporary black textured limp cloth over boards. Edges a bit chipped and tattered inelegant black tape repairs to spine. First leaf detached contents otherwise clean. A wonderful annotated vernacular photograph album documenting a well-to-do family's vacation to Hawaii via brief stops along the West Coast in 1914. The album opens with a group image of the travelers in San Francisco numbering around twenty-two men women and children captioned "Southern California - Honolulu." This is followed by several pages picturing their initial journey from Seattle down to San Pedro Los Angeles and San Diego before they departed for Honolulu on the S.S. Matsonia on June 17. A passenger list is included and many of the images are captioned with the names of the subjects providing a nice opportunity for identifying the travelers by cross-referencing the passenger list. The group spends their vacation time at the Sea Side Hotel on Waikiki Beach in bathing houses and on the beach visiting local businesses plantations and other hotels surfing fishing and more. Through the course of the album much of the landscape of Waikiki is featured providing a snapshot of the hotel and details of its surroundings along with shots of a "Native Village" sugar cane fields and a plantation pineapple fields street views of Honolulu a picnic for "Kids of all nations" at Waikiki the Port of Honolulu and more. The album also features a few early images of surfing at Waikiki Beach. In mid-July true to the title of the album the group heads back across the Pacific Ocean aboard the R.M.S. Niagara after just one month. Most notable among the photographs are about thirty risqué images of local Hawaiian women interspersed throughout. The pictures of the "Native Girls" often feature them topless or scantily clad identifying them with additional captions such as "Hawaiian Beauty" "Maidens bathing" "Girls" "Hula Hula Dancers" and "The Ex. Queen of Hawaii." One group shot shows ten Hawaiian women eating fish captioned "'Lunau' sic Lu'au or Native feast." Another side-view image of a naked Hawaiian woman is annotated "The Natives are a sturdy race of people." There are also numerous images featuring other indigenous Hawaiian people in a variety of settings including a couple of images showing a "Hawaiian boy climbing a cocoa nut palm" two pictures of "Native fisher boys" a "Native hut" "Hawaiian kiddies" a "Native canoeist" a "Group of Natives" a "Native Priest - looks as if he had been fasting for some time" and images showing "Natives selling 'Leis' for departing visitors" and "Native 'Leis' vendors on Honolulu." The images of the Hawaiian women as well as the men combined with the captions provide an opportunity for further studying the ways in which affluent American mainlanders have traditionally viewed indigenous Hawaiians and other native peoples encountered throughout the world. In addition to the passenger list mentioned above the ephemeral items include shipboard menus a program for an onboard concert newspaper clippings cigar labels and postcards. The latter includes a series of forty-one vibrantly-colored postcards illustrated with Hawaiian fish. An interesting travel album detailing a trip to Hawaii at the outset of the First World War with many notable observations on indigenous peoples in Honolulu especially the young women of the island. unknown

An extraordinary photo and photo negative archive visually documenting the historical archaeological surveys undertaken by Lockwood and Rossie Frost on the Bond Homestead Kalahikiola Church erected by the Bond family south of Kapaau Hawaii in Kohala Hawaii originally established in 1841 by Boston missionary Reverend Elias Bond.

The majority of the photos and negatives are black & white but there is also a significant portion of colour images not only of homestead and building exteriors but also interior household items clothing and more.

This noteworthy archive consisting of over 820 original photographs and over 1000 individual negative images provides an essential visual record of the historic archaeological and architectural surveys carried out by the Frosts for the Hawaiian Mission Childrenâ€™s Society beginning in 1967 in the Bond Historic District located in the Iole Ahupuaâ€™a one of the few remaining traditional land divisions in Hawaii. The Bond homestead Kalahikiola Church the Kohala Seminary and attached medical doctorâ€™s office are all located within the Bond District and the well preserved homestead was first established by Rev. Elias Bond 1813-1896 in 1841 with the Kalahikiola Church completed in 1855 rebuilt after devastating earthquake in 2006 and the Kohala girlâ€™s school founded in 1872. The hundreds of photos show the household objects textiles tools furnishings documents artwork books equipment and more all accumulated from 1841 through 1930 by the Bond family. Elias and his wife Ellen had sailed with the Ninth Company of Missionaries from Boston and settled at Kohala HI in the mission established by Rev. Isaac Bliss who had completed the main building before their arrival. The Bondâ€™s immediately began adding additional buildings such as the wash house archway & walls foundations of woodshed and carpenter sheds as well as begun work on the Kalahikiola Church. Rev. Bond had founded the Kohala Sugar Co. in 1862 as â€œThe Missionary Plantationâ€ to support his church and schools and he refused to institute the slave-like labor conditions of other sugar growers in the Hawaiian Islands. The profits made the Kohala Sugar Co. one of the largest benefactors to other missions operating for 110 years. Many of the artifacts depicted appear to have been accumulated and used by Dr. Benjamin Bond 1853-1930 his son who finished medical school at the Univ. of Michigan in 1882 and returned to live and work on the homestead with a doctorâ€™s office attached to the main house in 1884 for his practice. After Dr. Bond married Emma Mary Renton 1866-1951 in 1889 a wood-framed cottage was added at the East end for them. In addition a small shed was expanded to shelter a horse carriage and single horse stall for emergency medical calls. A series of photos shows the scene of the Frostâ€™s driving to the homestead and then heading into the Bond properties. The photos meticulously document the china glassware stoneware needlepoint & embroidery samples an ABC sampler by Eliza Bond signed 1817 silver flatware bellows original photos & illustrations of homestead buildings chairs large benches and sideboards. The kitchen cooking implements cookware and equipment receive significant attention with photos showing the ancient kitchen burners hot water tank propane or oil-fired stove historic coral stone chimney dining chairs and more. Of particular interest are the extended series of images depicting the artifacts medical instruments and furnishings in Dr. Bondâ€™s office including his book collection Chautauqua desk large safe dried medical herbs razors astronomy atlas anatomy atlas diagrams eyeglasses glass beakers pharmacy tools and much more. Also included are photos of abandoned boxes for chemical and pharmaceutical supplies in the attic. The breadth of clothing textiles toiletry items jewelry rope beds architectural elements family photos a Chinese compass art easel and more reflect the growing affluence of the family not only from Dr. Bondâ€™s practice but also as the sugar production and mill expand however with much of the profit still being devoted to Mission Society projects. The negatives and photos also show the wagons used by the doctor and his family the extensive tools employed on the homestead to maintain not only the family holdings but also the Church and Girlâ€™s School buildings. Photos also show a bookpress bottles sawmill equipment a rock crusher installed for road paving and more. After Dr. Bondâ€™s death the buildings were maintained by a special trust fund which terminated in 1968 and subsequent to that time a family corporation helped finance the care of the estate. The manuscript diagrams and notes by the Frost indicate where windows were replaced from the original when electrical work was done on the property improvements to the buildings where the hallway from the shop to kitchen was located the womenâ€™s toilet pantry cupboards and rough charts and maps of locations of buildings and objects on some of the walls. For a time the Industrial Building housing 12 occupational students and one teacher continued to operate but in 1955 the school stopped functioning. For over a decade the properties were used for conferences retreats and camping grounds but eventually they became unoccupied and unused so they were in very poor condition when surveyed by the Frosts over three years. The Frosts prepared a very scarce photo album and report consisting of 6 pages of text and 12 leaves containing 82 tipped-in photos in January 1968 followed by a Feasibility Study for the Hawaiian Mission Childrenâ€™s Society in 1969 but we could find no similar extant collection of these photographs or records of this historical survey. The National Register Survey was completed in 1973 and then filed in 1977 finally approved in 1978 for adding the properties to the National Register.
