On board a Yeungkong fisher type junk at Aberdeen, Hong Kong
On board a Yeungkong fisher type junk berthed at Aberdeen, Hong Kong. The photographer is looking forward from the poop showing members of the crew at work and a small girl sitting on the starboard bulwark. One of the men is in one of the fish boxes in the hold and two baskets are by the open hatch. The lug sails are stowed fore and aft. 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.
