The Campbeltown ring net fleet dressed for the Queen's coronation on 2nd June 1952. Taken from the deck of the Clyde Puffer 'Pibroch'.
Another tantaliser from LP Records

Hey Dunard
I've been keeping a very low profile these past few weeks, what with work and one thing and another
Haven't even touched the ringer model!
Anyway, I'm sort of back qand psyching myself up to get back on with the model
The Coronation Day pix are nothing short of remarkable
Are they early(ish) Kodak images or what? For sure, whatever system it was, colour was bloody expensive then
It's pix like these that show how beautiful ringnetters were in their heyday and how colourful life could be, even in 1950s Britain Though 50s born in the UK, I was raised in Canada and New Zealand and so never experienced that post-war period which historians tell us was pretty dismal
Do please keep such images coming. They're wonderful
