Iberia (1873)

A whole plate negative. A starboard broadside view of the passenger/cargo liner Iberia (1873) at moorings in Gravesend Reach, River Thames. She is barque rigged and the cargo derricks on her fore and main masts are raised. She has an awning rigged aft and is flying the blue peter. Tilbury is in the background. The emulsion has lifted and the negative has been discarded but a 12x10 photographic print produced from the negative in the 1950s is available for scanning.
