A slightly distant port side view, taken from abaft the beam, of a Swatow trader type junk under sail at Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong. She is a three masted vessel and her mizzen mast is lashed in the starboard corner of the poop. She has a lug sail set at each mast and her anchor is hanging over the bow. Her rudder board cannot be seen. Four storey flat roofed buildings on a stone wharf are in the background. Tow other junks are on the left and the sterns of all three junks are of differing construction. The photographer was in the area in the following periods: 6 to 28 May 1937; 14 October 1937 to 8 January 1938; 14 April to 4 June 1938 and 8 to 12 September 1938.
