Three pages of picture postcards showing women embroiderers in Madeira. The photographs show women in white dresses sitting outside thatched stone cottages and in gardens, and one woman holding up a large piece of embroidered work. Captions include 'Madeira, Embroiderers' and 'Hand Embroidering native of Madeira Islands'. The postcards document the Madeira embroidery industry and the working conditions of its home workers.
