Notes
Content: Printed on border: "The Sundanese Javans are somewhat shorter in stature than the Javanese proper, and lighter in color. Most of these people found in the interesting village on the Midway were from Dundanese stock. Their eyes are always brown or black, and the hair black and long. The Javanese consider a golder yellow complexion the perfection of female beauty ..." Includes additional text.
