The casaba and the two quays form a triangle. The card is very soiled, but the detailed picture offers an active wharf scene with a number of ships in the harbor. This Undivided Back Era postcard, mailed in 1904, offers a detailed and active image of the port, but the card showing soiling and has lost its stamp. It also shows edge and corner wear. No. 111.
