"Dschang - Habitation des Missionnaires, sous un nuage de sauterelies" ("Dwelling of the Missionaries, under a swarm of locusts "). A two story house sitting on top of a slight hill is surrounded by innumerable locusts, some of which are visible in the foreground of the picture. The back of the postcard has a handwritten note in French, along with printed information about the mission agency: "CAMEROUN FRANCAIS - Missions des Pretres du Sacre Coeur de St-Quentin - Procure de la Mission: 214, Rue Lafayette - Paris (Xe)" and with a printed address of the publisher: "Dillen et Cie Heliograv. 23, rue Oudinot - Paris" The Missionaries of the Sacred Heart were a Catholic religious order.
