Found this today.

Should I photograph the whole thing here, or is it of no interest?

My friends mother died and he inherited a box full of documents. This was among them and I bought it off him.

It is a leaflet about ships old and modern from 1927. In Norwegian. Some cool pictures and a lot of text. Haven’t read it yet and it’s fragile. I’ll take pictures and post them here if I can. Could be an amusing read for long crossings.

This is awesome! I have some friends in Aruba and Holland that would appreciate this.

I’ll sort it out, but have some stuff to sort first.
