This is Snake Charmers vintage photographic postcard in my collection. This vintage postcard printed in Germany. During the 19th and early 20th centuries some photographers documented the lifestyles and traditions of people of India and taken beautiful photographs like these.
Thank you very much to all for your valuable encouragement. In this blog i am trying to explore Indian Heritage and Culture in various aspects by using the images from my own collection and also from other people collection with their kind permission. If any person or organization think that some of the images which i am using in my blog are relating to their own property and copyright then i request them to intimate me and i remove them immediately from my blog.

Snake Charmers vintage post cards
These are 3 different Snake Charmers vintage post cards.
These Sanke Charmers vintage post cards are not my own collection. One person from Belgium giving me permission for using his Indian vintage post cards images in my Heritage of India blog. Sir thank you very much for your encouragement.
From the ancient times Snake Charming is a habit for some people in India. They used this tradition from many generations for their livelihood. Even in present days also in some rural areas still there will be snake charmers who continue this age old tradition which inherit this from their forefathers.
But like many other traditional works these snake charmers are also came out from this work gradually because they cannot sustain their life with only this work because of the modernization.
Hence it is our responsibility to give some money to the people like Snake Charmers, Monkey Trainers, Bear Trainers, Puppet Show Performers and other people whenever we see such people for their livelihood.
Otherwise in the future generations all these traditions are completely vanished.
