Mr Ender Rudolf from Germany or Austria toured around some Forestry Commission sites in Scotland in 1954 and on his return appears to have compiled a photographic album of his visit. He must have copied some of the pages of photographs and returned at least 15 pages to Scotland. The first 4 pages show 12 images from either Fetteresso or Drumtochty.

Two unnamed men discussing the Sitka spruce planting on fairly thin ploughing in pure heather which was almost certainly a recipe for tree check.
