This scrapbook page captures American sailors' shore leave in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1939. The photographs show popular tourist landmarks -- ornate fountains, public squares, and the Monument to the Restorers -- alongside traditional ox-cart transport still common in the city at the time. Such images reflect the everyday cultural encounters of U.S. Navy personnel during interwar European port calls, contrasting old-world tradition with encroaching modern life on the eve of World War II.
