“Pechino – Cina – In un Orfanstrofio della città.” Four little children stand with a missionary sister outside an orphanage in Pechino [Beijing]. They are all dressed alike in heavy jackets and pants covered with decorative pinafores. The following information is printed on the back of the postcard: “Pontificie Opere Missionarie. Direzione Nazionale Roma (1/33) – Via Propaganda, 1-A –Roma (1/33). Tutta l’infanzia a Cristo, grande amico del piccoli.” Handwriting in Italian closely covers the back.
