Alfred and Enoch, dispensary helpers, Nigeria, 1929

Black and white photograph showing two Nigerian men, helpers at the dispensary run by the Primitive Methodist Missionary Society in Ama Achara, Nigeria. The two men stand in a courtyard, and wear overalls with the letters "P.M.M" embroidered on them. A tin bath can be seen in the background. Writing on the reverse of the photograph reads: "Alfred and Enoch, Dispensary helpers. Note P.M.M (Primitive Methodist Mission) on jumpers! Around July 1929." This image comes from a photograph collection kept by Emily Godfrey, Matron of the Methodist Hospital at Ama Achara, southeast Nigeria, from 1921 to 1944.
