Archibald Dudingston Willis, the printer of this attractive postcard, was born in London, but having lost both parents by his early teens, and already having had three years' work experience in a printing firm, he  made his way to New Zealand in 1857. He soon met up with  editor James Wood, and together they started the Hawkes Bay Herald. But Willis moved on, to Auckland, Wellington, the Otago goldfields and Dunedin, before settling in Wanganui. His printing company, A D Willis, produced many attractive chromolithographs.

Monochrome Monday... Te Whare Karakia o Ōnuku, near to Akaroa, South Island, NZ A shot from our visit to Akaroa last year. The weather was really miserable that evening, but I couldn't help taking this shot of Te Whare Karakia o Ōnuku from the roadside as I drove past. The foundation stone for the whare karakia was laid in 1876, and the building officially opened in 1878 as the first non-denominational church in New Zealand and was intended as a place of worship for both Māori and Pākehā. Ōnuku is a place of historical significance as it was the first of three locations (the others being Ōtakou and Ruapuke) in the South Island where Te Tiriti o Waitangi (The Treaty of Waitangi) was signed in May 1840.

Midnight mish to see some ace stuff in New Brighton: art, shelter, library, pier, crashing waves. Hanging with my moll @cloverismness out the side of Te Kete Wānanga o Karoro (the New Brighton Library) which is right on the beach and has a pier running from the upper deck. #kete #basket #wānanga #library #art #sculpture #carving #whare #house #pier #beach #waves #crashingwaves #surf #midnight #mish #NewBrighton #Christchurch #Aotearoa #NewZealand
