Description
Beekeepers. A collection of 36 photographic portraits of beekeepers, including a silver print taken in 1929 depicting the parish priests Gendreau, Métais and, probably, Corbillon amongst beehives (bearing the stamp ‘Blondeau, Sainte-Soline via Lezay (Deux-Sèvres)’, and the handwritten note in pencil: ‘You may keep this one as I have a duplicate. 22 August 1929!’). The other prints are mainly Kodak (a few postcards). Used to illustrate his Bibliography of Beekeeping.
