Roll of honour boards listing soldiers from the Cook Islands who served in the First World War, photographed in the 1920s.

Both honour boards are currently housed in the Pioneer Lounge of the Cook Islands RSA. They had originally stood in the old courthouse, but were moved just before a fire destroyed the building.
