Coloured lantern slide showing tall rubber trees enclosed by a wooden fence, probably on a rubber plantation. The rubber industry was and remains an important contributor to the Calabar economy. The Dunlop Company was a major firm to establish plantations in the area. This slide comes from a set on mission, culture and industry in Calabar, southeast Nigeria generated by the Church of Scotland and the United Free Church of Scotland (which was incorporated with the Church of Scotland in 1929.)
