Notes

The following description was provided by James Gardiner: "Rather a risky image in more paedophile-aware times, but innocuous enough in 1923 for Andre Coulon's Mother to send him in the post from Bône, Constantine, in Algeria to their home in Brussels."
This work is untitled: the title has been supplied by the cataloguer.
