This is again a very interesting picture. I still learn about history when I see pictures like this. Really never heard about Bechunialand. But it seems that in de sixties it was a little mess down there....
Further more I want to ask you if you're interested in pictures of borders, especcialy recent ones of germany/czech republic (west part), and if so, please let me know the e-mail address to send them to you.
"Protectorate of Bechuanaland" had been the official name of present "Botswana", before its independence in 1966. It was a British colony and this photo just comes from the latest days of that British government.
As regards Your proposal of photos of borders, I thank You in advance and I have sent You my mail separately.
