A.G.V on safari, Congo, ca. 1925-1935

Tinted lantern slide showing a female missionary of the Congo Balolo Mission standing behind her bicycle wearing a pith helmet, white dress and sandals on a Congo road. The missionary is Miss A.G Vinall, who sailed for the Congo in 1923 and was based at Bongandanga. She is surrounded by Congolese male porters, who carry various items for her, including a large umbrella. This slide comes from a collection generated by missionaries working for the Congo Balolo Mission, a mission begun in 1889 under the supervision of the East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions that developed into the interdenominational evangelical mission Regions Beyond Missionary Union after 1900.本藏品为一张着色玻璃幻灯片（tinted lantern slide），画面呈现刚果巴洛洛传教团（Congo Balolo Mission）的一名女性传教士：她立于自行车后方，头戴遮阳盔（pith helmet），身着白色连衣裙与凉鞋，身处刚果的一条道路之上。该传教士为A.G·维纳尔小姐（Miss A.G Vinall），她于1923年乘船前往刚果，驻地位于本甘丹加（Bongandanga）。她身旁环绕着多名刚果男性搬运工，这些搬运工正为其携带各类随身物品，其中包含一把大型遮阳伞。该幻灯片出自刚果巴洛洛传教团（Congo Balolo Mission）传教士所留存的藏品集；该传教团始建于1889年，最初由东伦敦国内外传教培训学院（East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions）负责监管，并于1900年后发展为跨教派福音传教机构——域外传教联盟（Regions Beyond Missionary Union）。
