Scope and Contents

216 x 152 mm. A view showing a crowded scene at the western end of the Zanzibar waterfront. Crowds of spectators are gathered in front of the godowns while yet more seem to be arriving by boat. They are evidently awaiting the arrival of a dignitary at Old British Agency Pier, but the occasion has not been identified.
