About Me
- Name: Ookpik
- Location: Michigan, United States
I began my interest in vernacular photography by a chance acquisition of over 10,000 negatives dating from the late 1920's through the early 1970's. Luckily, I knew what I had was something more than "someone's old pictures." This cache of old images became the impetus for me to create two Photoblogs: Ookpik’s Negativity and Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes. Ookpik’s Negativity contains photos that I would like to know more about while Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes features photos of ships that I am trying to identify.

I found this information, Built in 1952, by RTC Shipbuilding of Camden, New Jersey (hull #214), as the Sound Shore for the Central Railroad of New Jersey Company of Jersey City, New Jersey. https://www.tugboatinformation.com/tug.cfm?id=2739&fs
Thanks!
I found that too and while the photo is most likely somewhere in New Jersey I can't quite figure out where. It is also possible the structure no longer exists.
