Main street in town, Shantou, Guangdong, China, ca.1921-1923

"One of the main streets in Swatow. This is not a sidewalk but the complete width of the street. No Fords here! Telephone poles from side to side (horizontally) rather than vertically because the houses are so near together that it is a real saving of lumber." [now Shantou] A narrow street lined with shops and a man in the foreground
