A stern view of Tolo Harbour fisher type junks berthed in a trot at Aberdeen, Hong Kong
A stern view of two three masted Tolo Harbour fisher type junks berthed at Aberdeen, Hong Kong. Their mizzen lug sails are stowed on an angle and fishing nets are draped over frames, presumably to dry. The vessels have a platform overhanging the stern. The masts of more junks are beyond the two fishers. The photographer was in the area on four occasions: 6 to 28 May 1937; 14 October 1937 to 8 January 1938; 14 April to 4 June 1938 and 8 to 12 September 1938.
