These photographs were taken by a traveler who made many trips to Asia in the years before the Second World War. It was a time when most travel was by steamship. For the more remote Spice Islands, then part of the Netherlands East Indies, such travel would typically have been on a tramp steamer or freighter, such as those you see in the pictures.
