Smile NEW BRITAIN CLUB FORMS

NEW BRITAIN IS THE LARGEST ISLAND OFF PAPUA NEW GUINEA AND RIGHT BY NEW IRELAND. NEW BRITAIN IS ABOUT THE SIZE OF TAIWAN WITH LESS PEOPLE. THE MAP SHOWS NEW GUINEA AND THE TWO ISLAND GROUPS. THERE ARE SIMILARITY'S IN CLUBS FROM OTHER ISLANDS AS WELL AS FORMS DISTINCTIVE TO CERTAIN REGIONS AND TRIBAL GROUPS.

#6. A DOUBLE HEADED FORM OF CLUB FROM NEW BRITAIN
#7. #8. #9. PICTURES OF CLUBS SHOWING EXAMPLES OF THE DOUBLE HEADED NEW BRITAIN CLUBS AS WELL AS OTHER FORMS FROM THE REGION. I HAVE AN EXAMPLE LIKE PICTURE #7.
