1,500 Tall Ships Photos c.1859!!!

[tallshipssfo@comcast.net]

Tall Ships of San Fransico® are a collection of 1,500 glass plate negative photographs not seen in over 130 years! In 2003 a discovery of historic proportions was made when 17 old wooden crates were opened for the first time in a century, and inside was the biggest story in west coast maritime history. None of these images have appeared in print until now. As we assemble the full history of this magnificent fleet of west coast built tall ships for an upcoming book, we are making a small number of prints available to the public. Ideal for home, office or on board decoration. Perfect art work for seafood restaurants! See our web site or full details: http://tallshipsofsanfrancisco.com/

Most amazing pictures I've seen in a long time. Too bad they are not of the years in which us pirate types would have seen- but no one had cameras back then.

Not only are the pictures great, but it's wonderful to have an explanation of the ship's name and what they were used for.

Thank you so much for sharing!
