Description
Approximately twenty male students and five missionary fathers are posed outside a building. The fathers are seated in the front row and the students are standing in rows behind them, with some holding books in their hands.
The back of the postcard has a handwritten note in Dutch and English dated April 8, 1927 and contains information about the publisher: "Ern. Thill, Bruxelles." The back also contains information about the Catholic mission agency: "Missionaires d'Afrique (Witte Paters). 10. De missionarissen der missie Tongeren St. Maria, met eenige catechisten (Kivu-Steek). Missionarissen van Afrika (Peres Blancs). 10. Les missionnaires de Tongres Ste-Marie, avec un groupe de leurs catechistes (Kivu)."
