British Cameroons 1937-42

100 x 64 mm. At different times the Orchestra would leave the juju sticks and come shuffling and lunging up to the rest house, followed by masses of the dancers who with the beat of the drums and the gallons of Mombo were getting completely abandoned, They were led usually by the Chief's sister who acts as the Queen Mother and is seen in the centre foreground dressed in coloured silks with a garland of green leaves.
