Description
"The Snake charmer." The snake charmers photographed en route to a town. From a set of lantern slides entitled "Highways and Byways in a Hyderabad Circuit" compiled by the Methodist missionary Rev J.C.Knight Anstey (d. 1947) who served in that particular district for 28 years, from 1892 to 1920. It is thought that most of the photographs in the set were taken by Anstey himself during his period of service.
