Thill, Bruxelles." The back also contains information about the Catholic mission agency and the caption for the postcard: "Missionaires d'Afrique (Peres Blancs). 5 Fabrication de cigares a la mission de Ruaza (Ruanda). Missionarissen van Afrika (Witte Paters). 5. Missie Ruaza (Ruanda) - Vervaardigen van sigaren."
