    Oh well, Muthaiga Golf Club . Mwai = golf enthusiast!

    On second thoughts after visiting Irena’s blog it might be the Aberdare country club

    Wn, rest assured, your first guess was 100% correct. This is a picture of the entrance to the Muthaiga Country (Golf) Club, taken in 1936….

    Speaking of old pictures – I think there still are A LOT of memories from the last century among those that had the time and money to record it (~rich people, black & white). National heritage that needs to be preserved for the future. Dito old recordings from VoK (Daudi & Co.) which need to be digitaly preserved for future generations. The pre-1963 Kenya, I think, isn’t only about colonialism and other stupid things…
