Ruairidh, what a fascinating selection of photos. Well done!
I have copy of the full edition 1962 first edition and in the acknowledgments John Coleman states "Much of my own photographic material was lost through the exigencies of the journey and in the most dramatic moments the last thing I thought of was my camera." The book is full of stock images of from airlines and photos from other expeditions.
Where did these photos come from? Was Coleman just being modest about his photographic skills? Do you have a record of where the photos we taken? Some locations are clear from reading the book but some are a little more obscure.
Sorry for all the questions.
