Office buildings at Celebes Trading Company compound, Dobo, Warmar Island, 1908

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  One of the largest fleets operating off the north coast of Australia belonged to James Clarke, a Queenslander (Bain 1982:195-196). Clarke began pearling in the 1870s in Torres Strait but soon gained experience working in Indonesia and West Australian waters. He returned to the Aru Islands pearl grounds in about 1906 and operated his fleet with a mother schooner, keeping outside the three-mile limit of terri-torial waters. At Dobo he formed the Celebes Trading Company, which gave him greater indepen-dence. Previously the pearls of this area had been bought from the local Indonesians by Chinese and Arabs who took them to Makassar, whence they were sent on to Singa-pore and then to London, Paris, and Amsterdam. Now the Nether-lands Indian Government was giving concessions to British firms so that shell could be shipped di-rectly to London.

  I believe this was taken on 35th Street NW at M Street in Georgetown (looking North). The buildings at the very top of the hill are gone now but those shown in the middle section line up with what is currently there. goo.gl/maps/8APwwCTZ4RcwbhGh6
