Thanks Minnie
Tho I am not sure if I understand that link properly

Is it a copyright listing for a souvenir booklet that Abel Plant wrote?

Sorry, I don't know. It was just a snippet I found connected to Abel.

You could ask Archives. I read it as the lodging of a copyright booklet that he may have obtained as a souvenir,??  perhaps looking at the date he may have obtained it during war service?

Or perhaps a booklet he wrote himself

Kultur is the German word for culture.

Hello again.

Minnehaha has found a link to a copyright application for a souvenir booklet [?] a copy of which is held in the Wellington branch of our National Archives.

Our moderator SPADES is familiar with this archive, and may be able to assist you.
 
The Patent Office application is dated 1919. Item R26187958

Titled “The rise and fall of Kultur” by one Abel Alfred PLANT, of Palmerston North.

I have not been able to find any other reference to that title as spelt.  However pre WWI there were press reports of public lectures across the country, where the subject matter was “The rise and fall of culture”.   

Then again in the 1960’s.

Alan.

Oooh yes please, if its no trouble!

Am curious to know if it is something Abel Plant wrote or whether he just donated it to an archive

Many thanks
