The back of the card reveals a detailed map of the Warsaw Province, along with the provincial seal and intricate Russian text. The population of the region is noted, as well as the chief industries and local costume of the inhabitants. Agriculture was a prominent sector, with crops such as wheat, rye, and potatoes being cultivated in the fertile lands.
