EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Giant Oil Tanker Myrina launched at Belfast watched by the dock workers. September 1967" we are transported back to a significant moment in maritime history. The image captures the awe-inspiring sight of the colossal oil tanker, Myrina, being launched into the waters of Belfast's shipyard. As our gaze is drawn towards the massive vessel dominating the frame, it becomes evident that its sheer size commands respect and admiration from all those present. Standing alongside their creation are a group of diligent dock workers, their faces filled with anticipation and pride as they witness their hard work come to fruition. The year is 1967, an era defined by rapid advancements in transportation and shipping industries. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of that transformative period when shipbuilding was at its peak. It symbolizes not only technological progress but also represents countless hours of labor poured into constructing these magnificent vessels. Hailing from Memory Lane Prints collection, this evocative snapshot transports us back to an era where manual craftsmanship reigned supreme amidst towering steel structures. It reminds us of the dedication and expertise required to build such behemoths while honoring those unsung heroes who made it possible - the skilled men who toiled tirelessly behind-the-scenes. Through this photograph, H Eastwood has captured both a historical milestone in maritime engineering and an intimate glimpse into the lives of these dock workers whose efforts shaped global trade routes for decades to come.
