The Pitcairn Islands Study Group (PISG) was formed in North America and the UK organisation was constituted from an informal meeting of PISG members resident in the UK during 1987-88. The name of the UK PISG was changed to the Pitcairn and Norfolk Islands Society in October 2012 (PNI Soc).

Taking Down the Old Pitcairn Post Office
I’m not sure when these fascinating photographs were taken, but they appeared to be Polaroids (the originals were in colour but I only have access to the black and white scans that were printed in the UK Log, July 1998) and they were purchased in the early ’80s by our member Tony Fisher from a Postal Auction. The Lot was sold by a Mr Vosper Arthur of Liverpool who, from correspondence within the collection, was in regular contact with Roy Clark.
If any reader can help to date them please let me know. Interesting to see all those famous Pitcairn wheelbarrows in use.
