Star Ferry in the 1950s

Star Ferry in the 1950s
The vessel in the picture from the 1950s is the earlier design of ferry, from the 1920s. In the Kowloon Terminal there is a collection of photographs that illustrate the history of the Star Ferries, and this is one of the photos which shows a ferry like the one you describe. Anyone in Kowloon will be able to find this and give more details than I can remember. There was also a bookstore nearby where you could buy postcards of this photograph. Hope this helps, Gemma
