"Nuova Caledonia - Un villaggio di lebbrosi." ("New Caledonia - A leper village.") Two indigenous women in long white dresses stand next to a missionary sister riding a horse. Fourteen men, women, and children stand behind the sister next a thatched-roof church. The back of the postcard is blank and contains printed information from the publisher: "Propagandisti dell'ideale Missionario, perseverate con la parola e con l'esempio." ("Spreading word of the ideal Missionary, persevering with the word and the example.")
