This postcard depicts a native healer treating a patient. Both are seated on a brown blanket on the grass. The healer is leaning over the right side of the patient's face or possibly his ear. The grimace on the patient's face and his tensed raised hands indicate that he is in pain or discomfort. Various items are scattered on the blanket and the grass, including a shield, a coiled rope, and animal horns or claws.
