Dealer Notes
A fascinating ethnographic album, showcasing a series of photographs of the peoples and places of South Persia, the area of Iran under the English sphere of influence. It appears to have been produced in close collaboration with the Anglo-Persian oil company and includes images of the Abadan and Tembi oil refineries and other areas of the Iraqi Persian Gulf coastline.
