Chinese junk (Hong Kong)

The photo on this unused card dates from the late 1970s or so.  The only sails like this now visible in Hong Kong Harbour are on tourist vessels, and almost none of those.  You know how else we know it’s an old picture?  The crystal-clear sky.  Mailed in 2011 with five stamps, two full postmarks, and blue trilingual airmail sticker.  Grade: 2
