31092. (photo) Ambrose Lightship WLV-613 at Caddell Dry Dock & Repair c.1953. Clear, close, original 7” x 9” press photo shows excellent detail of the Ambrose Lightship, probably WLV-613, at Caddell Dry Dock & Repair Co in West Brighton. It may be at this time in 1953 that the large cylindrical lantern housing was installed on a tripod foremast with a British duplex revolving high intensity light. Nice view from the stern. Photo is b/w and is not dated. Clear, close, nice detailed view. (VG+). $48.
