Donald on the JETTY AT UMM AS SABAAN


A shot of Donald G. Schnabel on the jetty at Umm as Sabaan in Bahrain, 1957. This is the island that had been given to Max Thornburg.

Lovely water.

  1. Okay, so this guy owns an island in the Persian Gulf and wears a dinner jacket in 115° F weather. He may be an oil tycoon, but that is one cheap looking yacht! Not to mention that junky sailboat! And he calls himself a millionaire?

    1. I imagine it was a business trip so he was dressed to make an impression. Well actually, it was 1957 so that was pretty standard traveling clothes.
