    According to wikipedia, F215 in 1960 would have been: F215 Graf Spee (the former HMS Flamingo) (1959–67)
  • Niall McAuley said:
    She was sold to the Federal Republic of Germany in 1959, where she was renamed "Graf Spee" and used as a cadet training ship... During her service she undertook a series of training trips abroad , often with her ​​sister ship "Hipper" they i.a. repeatedly resulted in American port cities , from Victoria ( British Columbia ) in the north to Valparaiso and to Cape Horn in the South Pacific .

    I think the building behind the bow of the ship is Ringsend Tech which we saw last week. www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/30691019416/in/dateposted/

    Please State Records NSW, a larger version of this to see if we can find the name of the ship from the sailors' headbands.

    "Frigate" is a type of ship - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frigate .

    ... (with sugar on top)?

    There sure are a lot of frigates to choose from (I'm assuming its a steam frigate because of the presence of what looks like a pressure gauge).

    Here's some info on rifled muzzle loaders

    Sorry folks, here you go!

    Thanks State Records NSW.

    Alas, no name headbands on the sailors' hats, but the hi-res is astounding, showing a wealth of detail. The pressure gauge looks like a rudder direction indicator. The clock says 14:05.

    There is something engraved on the cannon muzzle which looks like a "D", a name and a date (1883?) . It might be the name of the ship, or the name of the cannon manufacturer. Can anyone decipher it?
