Somali Villages in Britain, late 19th and early 20th centuries

[YahyaBirt]

To whom it may concern,

I am doing a research project on Somali people who were put on display in ethnographic villages, which some academics call "human zoos", in the British Isles between 1895 and 1912. They may have gone under other names such as Abyssinians, Ethiopians, East Africans, Galla. The years and cities they appeared were the following:

London – 1895, 1905, 1911;
Bradford – 1904;
Dublin – 1907, 1912;
Edinburgh – 1910;
Douglas – 1912.

There may be others that I've missed, but this is what I've found from a review of the newspapers. Numerous postcards were made and sold of these Villages. I am interested in private photos as well as postcards of all of these various times/places, but especially any from Bradford 1904 (highlighted in bold). I'm also interested in any that have comments on the backs about the Villages too.

Thank you and kind regards, Yahya Birt
