Portfolio of photographs of the cromlechs of Anglesey and Carnarvonshire, reproduced in collotype

A marvelous record of the burial chambers of Anglesey and Gwynedd. These pictures were taken right at the begining of the 20th Century and provide an invaluable record of the burial chambers of Anglesey and Caernarfonshire. The effort involved and the time invested in traipsing round obscure corners of North Wales to take these pictures lugging a primitive camera using only a bicycle and sometimes a horse and cart for transport is considerable. I assume J. E. Griffiths required a sunny day to get the quality of the photographs he has taken. This leads me to believe he must have started his portfolio in the 1890's, as there aren't that many sunny days in North Wales!
