1902 Photogravure Kayan Tribe Child Gum Toh Ghosts Clutch Scar Evil XGTC1 SP4 CCG1A7B5C94This is an original 1902 black and white photogravure of a portrait of a boy of the Kayan Tribe in Borneo, who bears the "gum toh" or "ghost's clutch" raised scar, which is supposedly caused by the fingers of an evil spirit.
