SS Lord Kelvin Vintage Life Ring Buoy
The British SS Lord Kelvin was a cable-laying ship which served during the Second World War. Initially owned by the Anglo-American Telegraph Company, Lord Kelvin was completed in 1916. During the Second World War, Lord Kelvin was leased to the Western Telegraph Company.On 27 September 1942, while southwest of Anticosti Island, she was performing cable work when the Canadian Bangor-class minesweeper Chedabucto was ordered to escort her to Rimouski, Quebec. Chedabucto was running in a blacked-out state, and at 05:55, Lord Kelvin rammed the minesweeper in its side, near the wardroom. One member of Chedabucto's crew was killed in the collision. The collision left a 20-foot (6.1 m) hole in the side of Chedabucto. Most of Chedabucto's crew were transferred to Lord Kelvin as it became apparent that the hole was too big to be patched on the spot. Chedabucto sank while under tow.Lord Kelvin was repaired and resumed service. The ship spent the rest of her life laying cables until taken out of service in 1963 and broken up in 1967. England.

Signed Wool Tapestry After Picasso
Wool pile tapestry "Volutes" after Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), signed. Woven in India. From an edition of 40. It became very popular during the 20th century for Modern artists like Picasso, Chagall, Fernand Leger, Max Ernst, etc… to work with Tapestry weavers to produce artworks, much in the way that they would work with lithographers to make print works. They were also popular because they were highly resilient and very portable. Le Corbusier “lauded tapestries as “nomadic murals” that a city dweller could pack and carry from one apartment to the next.” These artist tapestries can take months to manufacture, and are also prized for their difficulty to fake because of the incredible amounts of labor and skill it takes to produce them.
