A delightful photographic study of a beautiful Vietnamese girl from My Tho (the capital city of Tien Giang Province, located in the Mekong Delta region of South Vietnam), wearing a metal band around her neck, pinned to her tunic with a thin cord. Cochinchina (written here in the French form, Cochinchine) encompassed the southern third of Vietnam whose principal city is Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). A French colony from 1862 to 1954.
