    Poignant snapshot, you may detect the anxiety in the men's (marines?) faces waiting for their loved ones' letter!! <3

    75 MAGDALENE VINNEN photos (so far) - enough to make a movie! They are a fantastic close-up record of everyday life aboard a working sailing vessel in port.
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia That's what I was thinking! It's the most comprehensive record of a cargo ship, and a sailing one at that in port that I've been able to find in the collection so far. Some of these photographs appear on display enlarged on the walls here at the museum in our Wharf 7 Maritime Heritage Centre. It's a beautiful space if you ever get the chance to see it :)

    Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons That's great - I must get there - one day. Do the current owners of the SEDOV know about this series?
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Current position of the SEDOV - hit "Current Vessel's Track" - www.marinetraffic.com/ais/shipdetails.aspx?mmsi=273510000 (sometimes I am blown away by the information available on the interweb!)
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia we'll definitely get in touch with them and keep you posted of any developments. We thought we were the only ones that used the term interweb! :P

Warships lying in Farm Cove

    The slight blur might indicate that the photographer was on the Manly ferry. This is a great album of 1897(?) "holiday snaps" !
