DAYAK HEADHUNTER W FRESH SEVERED HUMAN HEAD & SKULLS PHOTOGRAPH BORNEO




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:14025
Original Description:
Amazing original early 1900s photograph (possibly unpublished) showing a Dayak headhunter posed with some human trophies.  A freshly severed head of a man sits on a step of the longhouse with a grisly human skull on either side.  Sadly this was removed from a photo album and any accompanying information or provenance is lost.  The image was cut from the page and the remains of another photo on the back shows a group of adorable young Dayak girls huddled together.  H...eadhunter measures 3 7/8" x 4 3/4" and as mentioned is still adhered to a piece of black album page with slightly uneven trimming.
