Original shipyard Blueprints - SS John J Boland (MV Saginaw)

Unread post by Len King »

These are my most cherished possession, but desperation to pay expenses outweighs my ability to keep them.

I have a complete set of original blueprints for the Str. John J Boland
There are dozens and dozens of prints stored tightly rolled in two tubes.

They are, to my knowledge one of the most complete sets in existence, as they even have mimeograph copies of marine catalog entries for equipment.
Both large mailing tubes are almost solid, with the tightly rolled prints.
Several are many feet long.
Too large for display.

A lot of the shears show hand written annotations, likely by a shipyard engineer

I have lost the provenance to these due to a stroke I suffered years back.

I am not sure but think they were from a shipyard in Ohio.

I can take as many pictures as the prospective buyer wants.

I have no idea the value of these, but considering the direness of my situation, I'm willing to accept any reasonable offer.

Sheet count can also be provided to any serious interested parties.

I am located in Ishpeming, Michigan and can ship these anywhere in the world.
