Collecting cards depicting a story about a "Chinese" (actually Vietnamese) governor of "Bac-Ninh," who, while relaxing on a hill with his rabbits, is frightened by an approaching balloon carrying sailors. The sailors land, capture the governor and his rabbits, and make rabbit stew. One card is cut out, another (No. 7) appears twice. Chromolithograph, no publisher or location identified, between 1880 and 1900.
