I thought we'd have a brief interlude before returning to the Lebanon.
The slide on eBay is in much better nick than mine.
Gen2 has made a good point regarding the location of the Ostrich farm - it seems that the eBay seller may have made an error. The condition and style of the slide is much like the one of The View from David's Well. and the B in the right hand lower corner is the same as the one on the Ramses slide.
Did Madame Bonfils take a snap of her husband's photograph on the kitchen table? Will we ever know...
An Ostrich Farm at Matarieh, Egypt. Ostrich feathers were highly prized for the European Fashion trade at this time.
