Cammo and any other interested parties, as promised, these are illustrations from the 1887 book that I referred to in an earlier post. The last two images are African, as Cammo expressed an interest in this, and I also included a picture of a surfboard rider and various islanders in tattoo and dress regalia.
Hope they're of some use.






some of these moai have bowl sized pock marks along the sides and that's a new thing to me

at Cammo's request these last two are African first is Zambesi and the second is Congo (note the artifacts)
