Female Missionary and Calabar Boy, Calabar, Nigeria, ca. 1930-1940

Tinted lantern slide showing an unidentified female European missionary holding a Calabar boy, around two years old. A man stands next to his bicycle in the background in front of thatched buildings. 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.)
