Three Cheers crew sorting and packing shells, Aru Islands Regency, 1908

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Torres Strait pearl-shelling was almost entirely dependent on imported indentured labour from both Asia and the Pacific, the crew of the Combination's Three Cheers fleet being typical – 3 Europeans, 40 Japanese, 23 Filipinos, 12 Malays, 35 South Sea Islanders and 20 New Guineans.40 By the late 1890s, divers were having to go deeper for shell, and the majority were Japanese, who were the very best. Deep water full-dress helmet diving was not only dangerous, but a highly skilled occupation, and it took two or three years to train good men.

  The original caption is "Tagoe_Landang" (not "Landgan"). The island is also known as Tahulandang, Tagulandang or Thulandang (travelingluck.com/Asia/Indonesia/%28ID23%29/_1625589_Pula...) It is one of the main islands of Sangihe Islands. Location: www.google.com/maps/place/Thulandang+Island,+Indonesien/@... The ship is obviously the "Van Overstraten".
