USS Constitution - Frigate
Southwest Harbor Public Library
Description:
In the War of 1812, during the British blockade of the east coast, two British frigates, HMS Junon and HMS Tenedos, chased the USS Constitution into Marblehead Harbor and the safety of Fort Sewall. "When the USS Constitution, 'Old Ironsides,' was preparing for its 200th anniversary in 1997, the crew from Ralph W. Stanley was called in to help determine if it was seaworthy. So Ralph, Richard and his brother-in-law, Tim Goodwin, went to Boston to conduct a survey of the old warship. 'I went all over that ship,' Richard Stanley said. 'She was really in good shape. She could have sailed.' They made some suggestions, although he said he didn't know what the Navy did with the ship. It did sail again, he added." - from 'Stanley Boat Leaving Southwest Harbor' by Rich Hewitt, Bangor Daily News, August 24, 2009. July 1997, in honor of the 200th anniversary of USS Constitution, "Old Ironsides," commissioning, Capt. William Harland Kelley was chosen to sail the famous 204', 3-masted wooden frigate out of Boston, into Marblehead Harbor and back to Boston. This was her first independent sail in 116 years.

Issue Origin: The Pilgrim Tercentennial was a national celebration from December 1920 to the summer of 1921. Issue Date: December 21, 1920 Issue Location: Plymouth, Massachusetts Issue Size: 196,037,327 See Also: "The Engraver’s Line: An Encyclopedia of Paper Money & Postage Stamp Art" by Gene Hessler, BNR Press, Port Clinton, Ohio, 1993. Page 4 and 5 explain the production steps taken to turn original art into an engraved postage stamp. Worth reading as the engraver works from the beginning on a plate of about 3.5” x 4,” engraving a stamp at its finished size. Engraving is used for very few stamps today and, when one reads about the process, one can understand why. The author even provides particular engraver’s recipes for the acid they used, including that of James Smillie, the famous landscape engraver. Smillie - James Smillie (1807-1885) [show more]

Steamer H.M. Whitney Sinking in Boston Harbor
Southwest Harbor Public Library
Description:
"Steamer Sunk in Boston Harbor The Ottomon Comes Into Collision with the H.M. Whitney of the Metropolitan Line Boston, Mass., Sept. 28 – [Special] – Within seven minutes after it left its wharf this evening the steamer H.M. Whitney of the Metropolitan line, plying between Boston and New York, was lying in midchannel with its nose in the muddy bottom of the harbor and two holes in its starboard side, made by the prow of the steamship Ottoman of the Warren line. The collision was the result of a misunderstanding of signals. The Ottoman was coming up from quarantine and the H.M. Whitney had just started for New York. They met in the channel, both vessels going at a slow rate of speed. Capt. Hallett of the Whitney says he gave two whistles and that the Ottoman answered him with two. Capt. Williams of the Ottoman says he heard only one whistle and that he answered it with one. The result was that the Ottoman crashed into the Whitney’s starboard bow near the foremast. The force of the collision knocked everybody and everything on the Whitney endwise. In an instant it filled and sank. The water tight compartments held the Whitney’s stern above water. Fortunately no lives were lost and no one was injured by the collision. The Ottoman suffered only slightly, a small hole being stove in the bow below the water line and a few of the iron plated being started. The Whitney cost $250,000 and is fully covered by insurance. Its cargo is valued at $150,000. Arrangements have been made to begin the work of raising the Whitney at once." – Chicago Tribune, September 29, 1892, p. 1. [show more]
