Five ill children standing outside, Congo, ca.1920-1940

Five young children are shown standing outdoors, posed in expressions of mild medical distress. One scratches his head, another holds his nose, one cups his jaw, a fourth grips his shoulders, and a fifth holds his arms behind his back. The back of the postcard has no handwriting. Printed in the edges of the correspondence section is "Mission des Filles de Marie de Pesches Bas-Congo." "16. - Petits malades."
