Re: Lake Windermere Steamers
Hello Luke, I suspect that the Steamboat association site mentioned in the previous message http://www.steamboat.org.uk/register/index.htm is your best bet for the vessel(s) you are interested in. There are many other sites of broader interest. For Paddle Steamers try http://freespace.virgin.net/tom...

Re: Lake Windermere Steamers
Never say never....
I'd try contacting the owner. If nothing else you might get some access to the history and perhaps even to some images. The boat is now very clearly owned by someone who respects its history. Most enthusiasts will gladly share information with others.
Good luck and be happy

Re: Lake Windermere Steamers
It's a pleasure !
I suspect that if you find a way of making contact with the current owner of Shamrock (R. Mallinson) your quest for more information and images could be resolved.
Good luck and best wishes

Re: Lake Windermere Steamers
Hello, It's a splendid image. The postcards will certainly be out there so do keep looking at all the usual places, but why not try to locate the boat itself ? I tried a quick search and ended up at the Steam Boat Association of Great Britain Web Site and they have a record of what may be your vesse...

Re: Big Blow Out Postcard by Walt Munson. Information Please???
It may or may not help but the Syracuse University has a collection of Walt Munson Cartoons. Below is a link to their site, to the lower left of the page is an 'ask a question about this collection' link. Could be worth a try.. http://library.syr.edu/digital/guides/m/munson_w.htm#d0e48 Good luck.

Re: Researching J Beagles & Co
Hello John, Many of the John Beagles theatre postcards used photographs produced by Ellis & Walery for which Beagles claimed to have International rights. The National Portrait Gallery has a collection of photographic images and associated records of the era and they might be able to help. I've ...
