Round the Pyramids by R. Pick

This set of fifteen cards brings back all the fond memories of a trip to Egypt, where the average tourist
knows nothing of the language, the food, the transportation, or the people.
And too, he has no idea what Bakschisch is or how to use it to his advantage.

The set, published by the Cairo Postcard Trust, Cairo, Egypt, can be dated to circa 1909.
