A small archive of original photographs, ca. 1925-1935, of the violinist and cellist sisters Adele and Mary Bucklin as young women, together with another of their sisters, Velma or Margaret. The sisters, who grew up around the world as daughters of U. S. Consul General George Augustus Bucklin, Jr., are shown during their years in New Zealand, posing with their instruments in 8 original press photographs. Mary Bucklin would go on to be principal cello of the Victoria Symphony in the 1950's, and of Orchestra London in the 1970's; her second husband was conductor and violinist Clifford Evens. 8 photographs ranging from 5 x 7 to 9 x 12 inches; some light creases and wear to the corners and mounting remnants on the verso; overall in fine condition.
