Postcards depicting various races and tribes during WW1 were very popular, especially in France.
Beneath it says: Salute! My Duty Calls.
The reason the soldier is shown as a little child is because it was a popular type of theme for postcards in those days. Other cards were done showing "kiddie soldiers".
This card was published by Inter-Art Co., Red Lion Square, London, W.C. Artist: Donald McGill. Card designed early 1915.
If you have any postcards of Sikhs please share with us.
