A Century at Sea Jul
Guernsey's A Century at Sea (Day 1) Newport, RI Friday - July 19, 2019 A Century at Sea (Day 1) Newport, RI 1: NS Savannah Set of China (31 pieces) USD 800 - 1,200 A collection of thirty-one (31) pieces of china from the NS Savannah. This set of china includes the following pieces: two (2) 10" round plates, three (3) 9 1/2" round plates, one (1) 10" novelty plate, one (1) 9 1/4" x 7" oval plate, one (1) 7 1/4" round plate, four (4) 6" round plates, one (1) ceramic drinking pitcher, one (1) cappachino cup and saucer (diameter of 4 1/2"), two (2) coffee cups and saucers (diameter 4"), one (1) 3 1/2" round cup, one (1) 3" x 3" round cup, one (1) 2 1/2" x 3" drinking glass, one (1) mini cognac glass, two (2) 2" x 4 1/2" shot glasses, three (3) drinking glasses, one (1) 3" x 5" wine glass, two (2) 4 1/2" x 8 3/4" silver dishes. The ship was remarkable in that it was the first nuclear-powered merchant ship. It was constructed with funding from United States government agencies with the mission to prove that the US was committed to the proposition of using atomic power for peace and part of President Eisenhower's larger "Atoms for Peace" project. The sleek and modern design of the ship led to some maritime historians believing it was the prettiest merchant ship ever built. This china embodies both the mission of using nuclear power for peace while incorporating the design inclinations of the ship. -
From Earth to Art: Customer Addenda
From Earth to Art: Customer Addenda The World Wide Web has revolutionized the research process. What was once a slow search through printed material can now be done in seconds electronically. Most of the material found in researching this book was done the traditional way, but since the introduction of the Internet a great deal more in- formation continues to surface. The original list of Maddock and Scammell customers was formed using traditional methods, rang- ing from printed materials to searches for china at antique shows, yard sales and thrift shops. In recent years, eBay has become the principal source of information about additional customers of the Lamber- ton Works. A weekly eBay search under Pottery and Glass for “hotel china,” “Scammell china,” “Trenton China,” as well as a search under all categories of just “Scammell” or “Maddock” will often result in a new offering to add to the customer list. eBay can be even more useful in identifying all of the mystery logos that have already been found. Monograms, coats-of arms, Native Americans, famous people, scenes and names in unusual lettering styles can ofter be linked to their owners by searches ranging from “hotel matchbook,” “hotel enve- lope,” or “hotel advertisement” to such things as “hotel key tag” or “hotel soap.” Using “club,” “yacht club,” “restaurant”or other words results in an even broader range of possible Lamberton Works cus- tomer identification. This addenda lists additional Lamberton Works customers that continue to be identified since the book was completed, as well as any new information about Maddock Pottery, Scammell China or the Lamberton works that is discovered. -

TINSLEY FOR THE RUTGERS ORAL HISTORY ARCHIVES WORLD WAR II * KOREAN WAR * VIETNAM WAR * COLD WAR INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BY SANDRA STEWART HOLYOAK NEW BRUNSWICK, NEW JERSEY MAY 9, 2008 TRANSCRIPT BY DOMINGO DUARTE Sandra Stewart Holyoak: This begins an interview with Mr. John F. Tinsley on May 9, 2008, in New Brunswick, New Jersey, with Sandra Stewart Holyoak. Thank you, Mr. Tinsley, for coming to see us today. I know you are on a long trek, from Florida to Virginia to Pennsylvania and, now, here. You are heading to Long Island to celebrate your ninety-first birthday; congratulations. Could you tell me when and where you were born? John F. Tinsley: In Elizabeth, New Jersey, Elizabeth General Hospital, on May 17, 1917. SH: To begin, let us talk a little bit about your father and his background. What was his name? JT: Well, my father was one of three boys. My grandfather came over from [Ireland]. He started in Belfast, Ireland, and came over here and settled in a place called Hampton, New Jersey. Eventually, he worked in the iron mines in a town called Asbury, which is just down the road a bit, and he worked there for I don't know how many years, but he raised a family there. My father was born there on September 26, 1875, and he was the second son and, … prior to that, he … also had an older sister who was born and he had a younger brother, John, who was the one who went to Rutgers, the man after whom I was named. -

Clarke's Eight-Month-Old S.S. New Northland Arriving at Palm Beach
CHAPTER 4 Clarke’s eight-month-old s.s. New Northland arriving at Palm Beach on January 10, 1927, to begin the first program of weekly cruises ever offered from Florida A NEW SHIP, SOUTHERN CRUISING AND NORTHERN ICE The "Northland" The order for a "steamer of special specification, strengthened for navigation in ice" mentioned by "The Gazette" in 1925 was placed with shipbuilders Swan Hunter & Wigham Richardson Ltd of Newcastle upon Tyne, where, on January 30, 1926, the 3,445-ton Northland was launched at their Neptune yard. Designed by A T Wall & Company, consulting naval architects and engineers of Liverpool, with Walter Lambert as Canadian consulting architect, supervision was carried out by A T Wall and James M Dewar, consulting engineer of London. Walter Lambert, who had superintended the rebuilding of the North Shore after her fire in 1921, would play a role in the design and construction of several Clarke ships over the years. Meanwhile, "Fairplay" magazine carried news of the launching ceremony in its February 4 edition: - A luxuriously-fitted passenger and cargo vessel, ordered for the Clarke Steamship Company Ltd of Quebec by Tatham Bromage & Company Ltd, London, the well-known pulp and paper chartering agents, was launched on Friday afternoon, by Messrs Swan Hunter & Wigham Richardson, & Mrs Larkin, wife of the Hon Peter Larkin, High Commissioner for Canada, performing the naming ceremony. Mr Larkin and Miss Larkin, Dr Lemieux, Agent General for Quebec, and the Hon Victor Gordon, High Commissioner for Newfoundland, were also present. The new vessel is the Northland, and in respect of her accommodation for passengers she is a worthy successor to the many notable vessels of the liner type which have been built in the same shipyard. -
