First World War Black and White Postcard of Native Quarters in Cairo

A sepia-coloured artistic postcard showing a narrow street and living accommodation. The street is uneven stone and dirt and the houses that line the street are low and in bad repair. Various doors and windows can be seen and there are bushes or trees growing over the roofs. There are also two wooden poles that reach over the street from one roof to another. Featured in the image is a local man dressed in flowing robes and a turban. He is carrying a bag in his right hand. At the rear of the image there also appears to be an animal tethered. The postcard has considerable damage to its top corners and there is a large oil stain that can be seen front and back. The reverse has proforma printing and description of the image.
