The Canal
Same negative size, same contact print, same single weight matte paper, so even though it's not the same people and subject matter, it has to be by the same photographer. With the boat in the background and the dirt berm it has to be a canal. That doesn't help with a location. There are canals like this all over the world. The workers pictured may work on the canal or may work on the boat.
Click on Triangular Plan in labels. Hopefully I'll get back out to the store where I found the photos from this and the previous two posts and find some more. If not, so it goes.

Views of the World, Canal, Amsterdam, Holland
Think Holland and you think canals or tulips. I suspect it would have been too hard for some poor colorist to go in and do thousands of tulips.
I'll return to more postcards from this collection in about a month,give or take. In the mean time, click on Views of the World in labels at the bottom of the post to see more.
