A whole plate negative. A slightly distant starboard side view, taken from well ahead of the beam, of the 3 masted ship rigged vessel Malabar (1860) at moorings in Gravesend Reach, River Thames. She is rigged with fore and main double topsails, mizzen single topsail, single topgallants and royals. She has painted ports and is flying the blue peter. A bawley is at anchor in the left foreground and the stern of a tug is on the right. Tilbury is in the background.
