Pay-Day on an Indian Tea-Garden. 1910.

For Sale is a Full Page Drawing removed from "The Graphic, May 14th, 1910," Drawn by Frank Dadd, R.I., from a Sketch by Geoffrey Dadd, showing "Pay-Day on an Indian Tea-Garden."

The picture shows the "Sirdars" or headmen of the different gangs of coolies drawing the money for their men on a tea-garden in North-Eastern India.  On a big garden the amount of actual coin required for the wages is considerable, and it is a common custom for the money to be brought over from the nearest bazaar by native money-lenders, who change notes or cheques for cash, and charge a percentage for their trouble.

Condition is Very Good.
