Description
Can Tho, South Vietnam. A coconut shell in which a cavity has been cut and a map of an official building in Can Tho hidden (top left and right photographs). This was discovered by police in a wicker market basket when a three-wheel Lambretta passenger vehicle was stopped and searched at a check point on the outskirts of town. Another map was also discovered stuffed in a cigarette packet (lower left). One of the two hand-drawn maps is shown in the photograph at lower right.
