Photography shoots are very reasonable at Wiliama’s place; you will receive beautiful prints from 4.00 for a dozen.

[Speaking of photography, the microfilming of these newspapers were done many years ago, and the resulting images taken from those microfilms are many times not legible. I barely could make out the tiny print. There needs to be funding to reshoot the Hawaiian-Language Papers, so that the words from the past can be seen clearly today!!]

(Aloha Aina, 1/11/1902, p. 3)

Ke Aloha Aina, Buke VIII, Helu 2, Aoao 3. Ianuari 11, 1902.

Oh yeah. Also check out UHM Hamilton Library’s flickr page of ads from the English papers too!

  Thanks for the plug! Here’s J.J. Williams’ ad about photos taken at the U.S. annexation ceremony:
  
  I thought the ad documented a part of the U.S. annexation moment in Hawaii, however divisive the event was. Aloha.
