Empress of Ireland Glass Negative

[Chris Klausen]

I recently found a glass negative of the Empress docked. I believe it is an unknown image which is in great condition. I'm having some minor restoration work done and should have an 8x10 copy on Monday. I'm very excited to see how it turns out.

Chris,

Hope it turns out well for you! Any clues as to where it was taken?

Hi Geoff. I've tried to figure it out from old photos but I'm having some trouble. It doesn't look like the landing stage at Liverpool to me so I guess that leaves Quebec or St. John. There is a building very close to the edge of the dock. I'll keep you updated. Thanks, Chris

Congratulations, Chris! What a terrific find!

 

[Chris Klausen]

Thanks! The 8x10 that was printed from the negative came out perfect. I'll share it with everyone soon.

I can't wait to see it. I'll probably be able to tell you right away where the picture was taken.

 

[Chris Klausen]

Great! I'll post it soon.
