Niusipepa Masi. One large rectangular piece of masi (bark cloth) folded in half and newspaper text printed in black ink on all four sides to become pages in portrait orientation. The main heading printed in black ink reads "The Fiji Times with which is incorporate the Suva Times" from a printer's press (dated Suva, Fiji, Saturday, July 4, 1908). Masi is produced from the Vuni Masi (Paper mulberry) tree. The outer skin is removed and the inner bark (natural in colour) is soaked in a papasia (large wooden bowl). It is then laid out on a duadua (long wooden anvil) and beaten with an ike (bark cloth beater) to produce the naturally off-white colour cloth. Layers are felted together to increase thickness and size of the masi. Front page of this masi newspaper has a darker area of wear in the top right corner.
