These photos were salvaged from another skip about 2 years ago.
I have identified the photos as being Norway, The seven Sisters and Kirkenes, taken c1970 when the previous owner was on a cruise through the area.
This is the Shell refinery which I believe is on the coastline at Kirkenes. happy to be corrected if that is not the case.
This ship is the Kong Olav, built in 1968, there was rescue mission in 2012 to get the ship back to Norwegian shores. I'm not sure how it all went.
This is a postcard, which reads "Norway Lapps on the River"
This is a postcard which reads "Norway, View of the town"
This is a postcard, which reads "Norway, Part of the town with the church"
This is a postcard which reads "Norway, Vaso church from the year 1958"
"The Seven Sisters" (as advised by writing on the back of the photo)

This is a postcard which reads "Nord-Halogaland stiftsgard til hoyre for Kirken"
It's amazing (and disappointing) to see what gets thrown out.
If you have any deceased estate photos and would like them to be forever memorialised, I'll do it here for you, or better still what don't you?
