*Although this list is extensive, it may not be comprehensive, since there is no index of photographs in the album. HCS has attempted to list as many geographical locations depicted in the album as possible. There were a number of photographs of individuals who were identified in the captions, but these have not been included in the list of geographical places. Items in parentheses represent information presented by the publishers of the album; items in brackets have been supplied by HCS publishers for the benefit of Internet readers, particularly those unfamiliar with Greek geographical names and transliteration into English. Wherever possible, multiple shots of the same location, particularly those having a similar subject or view, have been noted in brackets following the geographical name. Note, too, that HCS publishers have offered (also in brackets) alternate English spellings of many locations to aid readers in identifying places that may have connections to their families. Any errors or inadvertent omissions from the list are
the responsibility of Hellenic Communication Service.
