Nice find.
Whatever else you might think of the internet-good or bad, its facility to allow access to research material the other side of the world is great.
I wish the British universities  and museums were as forthcoming as our American cousins in releasing this kind of material to the interrnet. There must be some great photo collections from the empire sitting gathering dust in various places of further education in the UK.
