Unbound. Zustand: Near Fine. A collection of 32 illustrations created by Minnesota native, Daniel G. Beebe depicting his time as a plantation owner in the Philippine Islands after the Spanish American War between 1902 and 1945. Additionally included are three black and white pictorial postcards, a removed map, and four letters. All items near fine. Daniel Beebe had been stationed in the Philippine islands while serving with the U.S. Navy as an assistant surgeon during the Spanish American War. The islands had apparently made an impression because Beebe stayed on to start a coconut plantation near Zamboanga City. He documents his time on the islands with letters, some photos, and numerous colorful hand-drawn illustrations of life in the Philippines. The images includes scenes of markets, families, boating off the coast, and views of the plantation. One drawing is captioned "Filipino boys swimming in an old ditch," another of a man holding a machete reads "inspired." Some of the illustrations accompany letters to his family in the States where he discusses the people, plantation, and his trips around the islands. In one letter he writes to his sister who was concerned about his travels to which he answers, "I look at those as vacations and as for danger let me assure you that it is far less than that I would encounter possibly on the streets of Minneapolis after dark." Another letter includes a drawing of a snake eating a goose with a detailed description of animal life in the area. One of the illustrations of a woman brandishing a spear and sword is accompanied by a song entitled "Ladies in the Trenches." Part of the chorus reads, "Ladies if yer wearin' a' yer husbands pantaloons, (mercy how you make a soldier blush), you will have to take the chances, which is tagged to husband's pantses." Beebe draws scenes of locals bathing, typical street views, and workers on his plantation including the "coffee girl." Also featured here is a small key of the Filipino alphabet. A fascinating hand-drawn firsthand account of life in the Philippines spanning decades beginning in 1902.
