Lorena à Kwami : la seule photo originale de l'Item E, et celle-ci [[1]], il s'agit du verso (catalogue : Ev, Barthel) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.103.124.14 (talk) 09:44, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Ah, thank you. Are the other photos all of plaster casts? Chauvet says that his photos were taken in Papeete c. 1885. He says:

Front and back of the tablet from Easter Island that belongs to Park and Davis and Co. (reproduced in Thomson’s book). This tablet, which does not have a Rapanui name, has nine lines of signs on the front and eight on the back. One corner is damaged and it has numerous holes. These photographs were taken in Papeete (Tahiti) by the widow of Mr. Hoare more than fifty years ago.
