Image Description
A common pastime for ladies in those days after a long day in the kitchen, was to get together in the evenings on the veranda cleaning rice and swapping stories. Families were large and feeding them took a lot of effort. Activities like this helped these dedicated home makers accomplish their task and also build a stronger bond with each other.

The Collectors
Clare Arni & Martin Henry - UK
This image is taken from a larger collection built by Mr Martin Henry, an Englishman who lived in India for over 12 years. He started collecting vintage postcards of India and South India shortly after moving back to Edinburgh in 1981 as they reminded him of the country he loved and lived in for so many years. Since then he has amassed a large collection of postcards showcasing the people and lifestyle of this land from a time long forgotten. His daughter Clare Arni, now owns the collection in memory of her father and his love for India.
