Original caption	ohne Titel
Description	Note: "2 Bände Cliché-Bilder der BM-Buchhandlung I. 2. Wichtig - Beispiele der Clichés der BM-Buchhandlung im späten 19. Jh. , 156 S. , ca. 2000 Bilder. 2 weitere Bände im Schrank Gang 4. Stock. S. auch Q-30.108, Q-30.109, Q-30.110 und für Kamerun: Q-30.99."; Note translation: QQ-30.001 is a volume of engravings from the Basel Mission bookshop. Important - samples of the engravings available in the Basel Mission bookshop in the late 19th century.; Note: Das sog. Clichébuch, QQ-30.001, wurde fotokopiert, zerschnitten und die Einzelbilder den verschiedenen Regionen zugeteilt (cf. QC-30.001, QD-30.001, QE-30.001, QQ-30.001 bis QQ-30.010) und verfilmt. - Der Zustand der Bilder wurde im einzelnen nicht bewertet, da das Papier zwar brüchig und somit das Album in schlechtem Zustand ist, während die Bilder allgemein gut erhalten sind. Die Fotokopien jedenfalls sind 1998 einwandfrei. - Zur Datierung: 1905 wurde als Enddatum gewählt, da dann das Rasterdruckverfahren definitiv eingeführt gewesen sein sollte (seit 20 Jahren auf dem Markt). Die Clichésammlung weist nur sehr wenige Rasterdrucke auf und besteht vor allem aus älteren Druckverfahren. Muss jedoch im Einzelfall überprüft werden, da viele Bilder sicher viel früher entstanden sind. (MS 06.1998).; Note translation: The so-called Clichébuch QQ-30.001 was photocopied, the individual images were cut out and put together in regional groups and filmed for the project. File QQ-30.005 contains some images from Egypt and North-East Africa, but mainly images from West Africa (few from the Gold Coast). The state of preservation was not noted in individual cases. The paper in the original Clichébuch is becoming brittle (1990), but the individual images were well-preserved at the time they were photocopied. 1905 was taken as the latest possible date for these images because after that year virtually all new images in mission publications were printed from half-tone plates. Research may well show that individual engravings go back to the middle years of the 19th century (MS 06.1998). - Indeed, QQ-30.005 seems to contain some very interesting engravings from Nigeria dating back to the 3rd quarter of the 19th century. (PJ 11.2001).
