Lucky dip - a bundle of old Hong Kong photos from eBay

Submitted by David on Sat, 09/28/2024 - 22:27

Hello from Wales! We're getting settled in, so I had time to record this short video looking at a batch of photos I recently bought on eBay. They came from a bunch of different albums but were all sold together - I guess they're the leftovers after the seller had sold off all the better photos.

The photos don't look special at first glance and I was the only bidder, so let's see if I've wasted my money or if any of the photos have a story to tell. (e-mail subscribers: if you can't see the video below, please click here to watch it on Youtube.)

Hi David,

At around three minutes fifty seconds into the clip when you a were howing the barber photo, there is a black board on the ground on the left hand side of it.  It showed a partial hand written beverages menu.  The itom on the most right on it was Caoco, probably served hot, with milk.

Some tid-bits to add.
