As a promotional gift they were added to the "Liebig's Fleisch-Extract", a luxury product that before the First World War was only affordable for wealthy circles. The pictures, produced in elaborate print quality, are a testimony to the way of thinking and perception of the last and penultimate century that has hardly been evaluated to date - to ideas of European and non-European history, the world of work, the colonies, family and gender orders, and many other areas of bourgeois culture.

Contains among other things: Reports about visits and travel reports to the interior of Schantung (with pictures)

In particular, the collection includes photographic material from the regions in southern and eastern Africa, Indonesia and China in which the missionaries of the above-mentioned missions were active.

Parts of the image material are available in digital form. In order to guarantee a modern way of working with the holdings in the future, the digitisation of the entire holdings is currently underway. Further access in the form of a representative selection of images available on this page is being planned.
