British Empire Marketing Board poster - Takoradi Harbour

Native Chiefs in Palaver, Takoradi Harbour in Ghana, West Africa. Native chiefs meeting a British official or governor of the area during a period when large parts of Africa still formed part of the British Empire. The poster, by G. Spencer Pryse boasts of British materials and British engineering and the fact that the harbour was opened by the Rt Hon. J. H. Thomas (who may be the British officer in uniform in the picture).~~
