  • Richard Norton said:
    Mina Caroline Ginger Van Winkle (March 26, 1875 - January 16, 1932) was a crusading social worker, suffragist, and groundbreaking police lieutenant. From 1919 until her death in 1932 she led the Women’s Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia (in Washington D.C.), and became a national leader in the protection of girls and other women during the law enforcement and judicial process. Her provocative statements about gender and morality in the jazz age brought her further national attention. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mina_Van_Winkle

    Excellent shot, Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums=)))
  • optimal chicken said:
    It proves that the yards were very much up to date with equipment and skills at the time. A unique picture this and one I've not seen before. It reminds me of the photo series of Doxford Engines before closure. If you'd like I could link directly to here??
  • Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:
    Hi Paul, yes please do feel free to include a link to the Doxford Engines photos. Glad you like the image, there are some more great Readhead's shots to come.
  • optimal chicken said:
    Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums Good stuff! OK now I do not own these images nor claim the rights to them. They were linked onto a ships enthusiasts website and took the world by storm when folk saw them. They show British engineering at its best. They're also taken before health and safety became a thing! Enjoy :) www.shipsnostalgia.com/guides/William_Doxford_and_Sons
