In numbers 661 and 664 of our blog we already showed some pictures of the September 1916 magazine of National Geographic. With the help of our fellow blogger Vasilis I found some more pictures on the internet, with many unpublished photo’s from National Geographic. Some of the pictures are presented for a second time, but they have a better quality then previously shown, and a couple photo’s are totally new and never seen before. The photo’s are by Harry Griswold Dwight.
