The caption on the reverse reads: 'Fulani Herdsmen at Mampon, Gold Coast. The scene depicts the Fulani Herdsmen in charge of a few of the hump backed cattle that hail from the Upper Senegal. Mampon, which is on the great scarp north of Coomassie, is one of the few spots in the Ashanti forests that is reasonably free from the deadly tsetse-fly'.
