Kaieteur from plane, 1970
Contains slides recording a visit to Guyana in 1970 though there is no indication whether it was in an official capacity. The earlier slides show aerial views flying inland from the coast, followed by a journey up the Rupununi River to the border with Brazil. The return route was apparently to the north of the outward journey and included a series of aerial photographs of the Kaieteur Falls.
