Inscriptions Typed in black ink on applied label, verso BC: (Ghana Port) 11/61 10) INCREDIBLE STRENGTH enables surfboaters \ to shoulder loads weighing up to 300 pounds. Their \ boats and shoulders carry some 600,000 tons of food \ and equipment each year. But the ocean floor is \ layered with crates and equipment from boats swamped \ in the sometimes violent surf. \ Credit: Marc Riboud © 1961 MAGNUM P [cut off]
