"51. AFRIQUE - Une ecole catholique indigene au Congo." ("51. AFRICA - An indigenous Catholic school in Congo.") An indigenous teacher sits at a desk in the front of a classroom of boys and supervises a student who writes on a chalkboard. The back of the postcard is blank and contains printed information about the publisher: "L'Oeuvre de la Propagation de la Foi soutient les Missions catholiques du monde entier. Envoyez votre offrande par Cheques Postaux: Paris, 618-25 - Lyon, 72-71 -- Propagation de la Foi, Paris, 5, rue Monsieur (VIIe) - Lyon, 12, Rue Sala."
