Can you ID This Ship?

No idea of the type of people who touch up smoke.

Have you thought about using a hair dryer to melt the glue? Sometimes it will, sometimes it won't.

If they are stuck firmly you might run the risk of damaging them but learning nothing from the backs.

Hi all,

Did some more scanning last night. Only one more ship which I think predates WWI, but maybe you'll know better. The rest are renderings of soldiers. Would it be better to start a separate thread on those in Soldiers, or add them here?

Hi all,

Here's the Anchor Liner 'Astoria'. This is the pre-Great War one, right?

I agree that posting the soldier pics to the Soldiers sub forum would be better.

Hello,

I thought so. That ship has an interesting look about her, as many ships do built around the switch from sail to steam.

I will start a thread now in the Soldiers forum for the soldier postcards...consider this an open invitation to come along if you are interested and have a look!
