A nostalgic look at the cargo liners and tramp ships that once dominated the oceans.
In the post-war era, ocean travel wasn't just for the glamorous liners; smaller cargo liners offered a comfortable, intimate alternative. These ships, though less known, played a vital role in maritime transport. This collection of photographs and postcards, acquired from major British, European, Asian, and American shipping companies between 1961 and 1965, offers a glimpse into a bygone era of marketing and public relations.
Mark Lee Inman presents a curated selection of these interesting pictures and postcards, preserving the memory of an age that has been transformed by air travel and the rise of the fast container ship. A must-have for maritime history enthusiasts and ship spotters
