This is the cover of a photo album created for the General Association of Rubber Planters on the East Coast of Sumatra (A.V.R.O.S.), a collection of photographs likely documenting the rubber industry in Sumatra during the 1920s. Created by the Dutch photographer J.W. Meyster, the album is a valuable record of colonial Indonesia and its economic activities. The plain brown cover contrasts with the vibrant images likely contained within, making it a fascinating object for art historians and social scientists alike.
