Junks and sampans off a coastal settlement harbour on Penang Island, Malaya.
Junks and sampans off a coastal settlement harbour on Penang Island, Malaya. A sampan, heavily laden with a cargo of sacked produce, is under sweeps in the left foreground and is being followed by two other sampans. Two and three masted junks, some of which have sails hoisted, are in the background. The negative has very slight image movement. Negative number P94238 is a similar view taken on the same occasion and negative numbers P94243, P94244 and P94254A show the same junks.
