Man power in Southeast Asia - 1972. Would love to know what these metal containers were used for ... given their size they could not have been for anything of high weight. I'm guessing they were some kind of steamers for food?? But then why would they have the well fashioned harnesses for perhaps frequent transport. Any ideas out their? This photo from a 40 year old scanned 35mm slide was a bit funky so I intentionally applied a watercolor type effect to it in Photoshop.
If the picture was taken in Jakarta, it was used to deliver Krupuk, an Indonesian snack pretty similar to a very puffy and airy rice cake.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of pictures.
