Can you help us solve a mystery? 110-year-old photographs

The Team from Auckland Museum

We're hoping to find out who the people are in these 110-year-old photographs, and (if we're lucky) who the keen amateur photographer was. Could they be members of your family?

We're hoping to find out who the people are in these 110-year-old photographs, and (if we're lucky) who the keen amateur photographer was. Could they be members of your family?

The images were gifted to us in 2016 as glass plate negatives, after being initially purchased in the 1970s from Auckland's City Markets (now Aotea Square). We know nearly nothing about them but the photos give a few clues. They were taken in the early 1900s, mostly in Auckland but also across the North Island. There are also suggestions of the photographer’s links to the Auckland Jewish community.

We want to know more to help tell their stories. Do you recognise any of these people?

Contact us at pictorial@aucklandmuseum.com if you have any further clues. Please share with family and friends if you think they may be able to help!
