Black and white lantern slide showing a group of women selling their wares in a market in Peru. A woman sits on the ground with her son in the foreground of the image, surrounded by sweet potatoes. She also sits with two baskets, one of which seems to contain homemade dolls. Other buyers and sellers appear in the background, mostly women in traditional dress, possibly from an Inca people. This slide comes from a collection created by the Peruvian Inland Mission, an evangelical mission started in 1930 by Miss Annie G Soper in northeast Peru, which was administered by the evangelical interdenominational mission, Regions Beyond Missionary Union from 1948.
