The slide caption merely says "Janitor Manama 57." I'm guessing he is standing in front of the BAPCO office which was featured yesterday.
No name for the man, just his occupation. It's pretty rare to get a name to go with a vintage snapshot, let alone an occupation.
Another vintage slide from Donald G. Schnabel's visit to Bahrain in 1957.

ReplyDeletePerhaps his shift was just starting. Or perhaps it had just ended and he figured that was the next guys problem.
