The Fuller Collection of Pacific Artifacts
London, Lund Humphries, 1971.
Large quarto, xvi, 360 pages with a tipped-in colour portrait of Captain A.W.F. Fuller and hundreds of illustrations from photographs plus endpaper maps.
Gilt-decorated cloth (with the decoration slightly tarnished); top edge slightly marked; an excellent copy with the price-clipped dustwrapper sunned about the spine and a little chipped and torn (with indifferent repairs on the verso).
'Although the Fuller Collection is pan-Pacific ... its three main segments are derived from Polynesia, Melanesia and Australia. The areas most amply represented - and, consequently, those treated most extensively in this volume - are New Zealand and the Solomon Islands' (dustwrapper blurb).
