Young boys, Nyasaland, Malawi, ca. 1914-1918

Black and white lantern slide showing a group of young boys sitting outside in a circle. Whilst one very small boy is naked, the remaining boys wear wraps around their waists. An older person can be seen in the background, wearing shorts and a bag across his chest. This slide comes from a set on the activities of the King’s African Rifles battalions in Nyasaland. It was originally held by the Church of Scotland, and generated by J.W MacKay
