Two from Nigeria


The first was sent to me last year and features a Nigerian cultural dance.


The second I found at a flea market, dated 1987.  The reverse of the card (John Hinde, so quite wordy) says:
Nigeria, the most populous single nation on the continent of Africa, lies on the west coast and has a rich tradition and culture closely connected with her religious beliefs and the rites and practices relating to them.  Traditional religion has given the people a heritage of culture and tradition which is still noticeable despite later influence by Islam and Christianity.  The agriculture, music, art, craft, language and economies of the country still bear traces of this influence.
