Like the previous photograph this one was taken during the first shooting of 'The World of Suzie Wong'.  It shows William Holden with the orginal 'Suzie Wong' actress, Frances Nuyen.  See my comment on the Forum for more details.

I've compared this to the few, later photos I have, and I think it is the northeast corner of Lockhart and Luard Roads. If it is not, please correct me. At any rate, a rare view of a Wanchai bar from just after "The World of Suzie Wong" was written, but before the Movie was filmed.

The World of Suzy Wong

One last contribution to this site-a photo of the infamous book itself-a first edition paperback, from 1958. I see on Amazon that this book has been reissued with this rather attractive cover, but this is one I picked up in a used book store at college when I got back from HK in 1972. Being only 19, I had not even been aware of the book before my trip.
