Title:
Tibetan Tract 2
Date Created:
1910-1940
Description:
A large hand drawn, hand lettered tract, illustrating two ways of experiencing life. Held up to one side the frowning figure depicts a life without Jesus Christ, weighed down by sin. Turning the tract, the figure now smiles, unburdened by the peace of the Lord. Tract from the collection of Victor Plymire, who lived among the Tibetan people as an Assemblies of God missionary from 1908 through 1945. Much of his time was spent traveling with the trade caravans that crisscrossed the country, presenting the Christian gospel in various ways to the merchants and towns and other communities the caravan encountered. Dimensions: 12" x 25".
