Hello Geoffrey, A rare topic that interests you.

You will definitely find photos from Adamawa/ Cameroon in the colonial photo archive of the University of Frankfurt with over 50,000 photos on this topic.

However, the whole file structure has been reorganized by archivists and is therefore even more difficult to access.

I'll keep fingers crossed for you. Cheers Holger
