Tinted lantern slide showing a group of men and male adolescents. All but one have bare chests and wear colourful wrappers around their waists, suggesting that they may be from the Efik ethnicity. Some men smoke pipes. One man in the foreground holds a large steel shovel. The group stands before corrugated iron and 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.)
