What is shown on the postcard
The image features industrial buildings, pipes, tanks, and plant infrastructure — the industrial face of a city that was also a resort.

Berdyansk combined port, ship repair, and processing. Oil-and-grease plants supplied lubricants for engineering and transport — typical of Soviet industrial towns.
