· ·Bill @ ΩFHello Everyone
Here is another 4 1/2 inch Ship’s Bell this one was sold in June 1903 …..
The name on the dial “MATKAH” I came across the yacht it Lloyds registry… is photo below …. Designed by E. A. Boardman for C. W. Whittier of Boston … this info is also confirmed in a “ The Rudder magazine 1904 except the name of the ship is misspelled dropping of the “h”.
As i have said in the past... these classic boats from 100 years ago are long gone, and if we are lucky we can maybe find a photo, a bell , an award or if we are really lucky it's ships clock !
Good hunting
Bill
