Children gathering close together, Congo, ca.1927

1927

A small crowd of children is shown clustered closely in front of the camera, most holding their arms crossed before their chests. The back of the postcard has a few lines of handwriting on it, and is stamped and postmarked. Printed at the bottom of the correspondence section is "Missionnaires d'Afrique (Peres Blancs) 2. La jeunesse espoir de l'avenir (Mpala. - Haut-Congo)" "Missionarissen van Afrika (Witte Paters). 2. De jeugd hoop der toekomst (Mpala. - Opper-Congo)."
