This collection comes from one of eight private photo albums belonging to Selwyn Roberts, who served as a Sergeant in the Cyprus Police Force between 1958 and 1960. This album, including 102 images, is made up mainly of black and white photographic postcards of different monuments and historical sites from around Cyprus. Among these are a few photographs and clippings from magazines, also depicting monuments or sites within Cyprus.
The images that comprise the online collection were reproduced from the original black and white prints. The titles are based on physical inscriptions, where available, and are otherwise generated on the basis of identifying the people, places and events pictured. CVAR holds digital reproduction of the originals.
