Scope and content
contains: Six hand-written Kladden in folio format, including the diary of Tetens 12.06.1902-14.12.1902. The other five Kladden contain descriptions of the plants, fish and topography. Note: Tetens transferred his collection to the museum in 1907. The folders are provided with numbers that do not follow one another. There is a letter from O.Tetens in the correspondence files which suggests that these books were sent to him from Oceania. There is a possibility that he did not write these books himself. Some are written in Samoan. So far it has not been possible to determine who is the author of these five books. According to the letter and the numbering there should also be other Kladden, but nothing is known about their whereabouts.

Note
Erhardt Eylmann Geb.: 1860 - Gest.: 1926; Zoologe und Mediziner; Bereiste den australischen Kontinent zwischen 1896 und 1914. Eylmann selber hatte keinen Kontakt zum Übersee-Museum. Das die Dokumente und Objekte denoch in das Museum gelangten, ist dem damaligen Bürgermeister Taylor aus Farge zu verdanken. Dieser informierte nach dem Tod Eylmanns das Museum über die Hinterlassenschaft.
