Description:

** Now identified** with thanks to Yvon, as one of a pair of Eriksbergs MV, Swedish built cargo/reefer ships for Svenska Lloyd:

VENEZIA IMO 5377991 - https://digitaltmuseum.se/021015770922/lastmotorfartyget-venezia-av-goteborg-i-malmo-den-30-10-1965
or
SICILIA IMO 5326851 - https://digitaltmuseum.se/021015771108/lastmotorfartyget-sicilia-av-goteborg

Circa 1963-1966, the location has previously been positively identified as the port of Leixões, Portugal during the mid 1960's, by Luis Manuel Correia.

Scanned from a poor quality slide in the collection of the late Niels Anker Larsen, former Danish Merchant Navy Radio Officer.

Hello Rick,
I would say one of the duo built in Sweden as :
- VENEZIA (1950 / 2167 gt / IMo5377991) - https://www.fotoflite.com/store/general-cargo-ship/venezia-1-detail
- SICILIA (1951 / 2167 gt / IMo5326851), https://www.shipspotting.com/photos/1979714?
Regards,
Yvon

His inquisitiveness, knowledge and ability to get to the sources arouse my admiration and respect.
Also a bit of jealousy, but in a positive way...

Thanks Yvon, once again, for your invaluable help. I agree. All structural features are identical to your suggestions.
Cordialement, Rick
