I’m loathe to part with these but poor health and poorer finances force my hand.
I acquired these almost 20 years ago and they have been a gem of my Great Lakes memorabilia collection ever since.
Their history (as I remember it) was that they were saved from destruction when the shipyard they were stored at was closed and being liquidated.
I think it was Toledo, but don’t hold me to that.
I have photos of all of the prints, and can email them.
Prints will ship in three large shipping tubes.
Asking $300 plus shipping, or best offer.
My email is

I accept PayPal and cashiers checks and Postal Money Orders (both of those methods will have to clear in the bank before shipping)
