Do you have any clue of the year? I keep thinking of sizing the material for the Saba drawn lace. But that did not begin until the late 1800's.

this is from maybe the 1930's or 40's I think. and they are drying cassava bread on the roof. When there was no flour, they made their bread from cassava.
