Photographic postcard "LITTLE JIM 5."
Coloured photographic postcard showing a dead child laying in a bed. The child is under a blue cover. The mother stands at the head of the bead and is wearing a pink apron, a white blouse and has a shawl over her head. The father approaches the bed carrying a candle. He is wearing a brown apron, white shirt, a red kerchief around his neck and a cap. The fifth verse of a poem entitled “LITTLE JIM” is printed below the image. It tells of how the father – a collier – returns to his cottage to discover his child had died. The reverse of the card is blank.
