Yes Shimba is the boy in many of the photographs.

The photos were taken in Kenya.

I like that these photos both show a period and also part of hunting in East Africa we don't often see or hear about. Sometimes when reading books written by European ex-pats hunting by Indian residents is referred to. But usually little more. But here we see some of the excellent hunting adventures of the period.

In addition occasionally we see photos of the "Rajahs" of India whom all almost without exception went on East African safaris. It would be great if their photo albums could also be sourced, preserved, displayed and enjoyed as well.

I think it is really cool to see these vintage photos and also a young guy, his father, family and some of their 'family holidays'. His families holidays leave mine for dead that is for sure.
