Two Samoan men sit in a boat near the grassy banks of a river with long fishing poles. Houses are visible on the opposite shore. The back of the postcard is blank and contains a printed title: "Missions Maristes d'Oceanie - 9 - Pecheurs en pirogue aux Iles Samoa." ("Marist Missions of Oceania - 9 - Fishermen in a boat in the Samoa Islands.") The back also contains information from the publisher: "Editions Procure, 123, Chemin de Choulans, Lyon." The Marists were a Catholic missionary order.
