A postcard from Camogli in Italy. Parked between the two Fiats, a 500 on the left and a 600 on the right, is a MGA. What a great, period, photo of this beautiful harbor town on the Ligurian Sea, just East of Genoa. I wonder whether the child, climbing on the railing of the stairs on the left, is daydreaming about one day owning one of these boats or Fiats… or the MGA? 

Google Maps Streetview shows that not much has changed in Camogli. Although the boats have grown a little bit bigger, most of the buildings look just like they did in the late 50’s or early 60’s when the postcard photo must have been shot. And if you Google around a bit more you’ll see that the little child’s stars are also still there. But there now is a No Parking sign so Camogli’s children can no longer daydream about boats vs. cars.
