Steam Packet Chancellor Livingston 1817

This weeks vintage photos and illustrations from my Google + page.

I came across the old print of the Steam Packet Chancellor Livingston (as above) recently. It states: "Built from plans drawn by Fulton for a corporation that held a monopoly of the waters of New York state for the use of steam propelled vessels."

I wasn't too sure what the photo above was all about but my Google+ friend Thex Dar thought it was a Halloween picture. He then went to the trouble of getting a selection of such photos and turned them into a video for me, which can be seen here.

Vintage Gillette Safety Razor Advert

The Gillette safety razor advert is quite, erm, unsettling! A child with a razor, how could they have thought that was a good idea?

Poole Harbour, Dorset

That's all the old stuff for this week.
