The Auckland War Memorial Museum holds a large number of cultural objects, a collection of shells, and a group of butterflies, all collected by the Methodist missionary Arthur Henry Voyce during his years as a Methodist minister in Bougainville in the period 1926–1958. His relationship with museums in New Zealand, and the background to the acquisitions is described.
