Another View of Loading Eggs on a Freighter, 1979

This, like yesterday's photo, shows the loading of salmon eggs on a Japanese freighter, 1979. Note the small size of the hatch in the Japanese freighter. It appears that the workers must lower freight perpendicular to the hatch.

For more information about the use of salmon eggs, see the pictures for October 14 and October 15, 2005.
