It is part of the national dish of Barbados, once called "the land of the flying fish". Handwritten on back: "These fly in front of the boat all the time. We visit the jungle in South America next week at Georgetown where the Redfern [] expedition set forth. We passed the volcano Mt. Pelée in the dark unfortunately. You know it could St Pierre in 1902.
