A picture of what is Queen Elizabeth Walk in Singapore when it was still a bustling, disorganized port of call (Taken in July 1970 by Carl Mydans for LIFE)

Millions of photos from LIFE magazine are now archived on Google Images. And the large-resolution versions are available for purchase as prints, too. I found a slew of Singapore-related images and they are awesome (if you’re a nostalgia/history buff) but I just wish there were more information on the images’ locations and context. Maybe Google and LIFE could extend the Google Image Labeler to this outstanding resource one day and make it even more useful.
