A scarce B & W photographic postcard of the S.S, Strathnaver, a ship that was always regarded as changing the fortunes of the Peninsular and Orient Shipping Company.  Launched in 1931 and with 4 other sister ships, all of which were called 'Strath' and all with white hulls and buff funnels, they were Royal Mail ships that ran between Tilbury in Essex and Brisbane in Queensland.  Strathnaver remained in service for just over 30 years, before being scrapped in 1962.

With a message to the reverse, but never posted (unless it was in an envelope).

We are just starting to list (slowly!) a whole pile of ship-based postcards and photographs, so please 'save' us so that you can see them all. 

I'm having a clearout and new to Ebay, so please bear with me if I get anything wrong: the card(s) were copied on a scanner so the edges may not be quite as crisp as they appear 'on screen', and the card(s) will possibly be showing some signs of wear after all this time.  

Any questions do please ask, but please note that I only check my mail once a day (poor old eyes!) so do be patient.

Posted in a card-backed envelope (up to six cards) within the UK mainland, please enquire about the postage to offshore islands.  I'll get a cost for postage to Europe and list it.  The Rest of the World postage: guess that you will have to ask me, and I'll quote for Economy Mail (think that's 12 weeks).  Alternatively, collect in person by appointment from Liskeard in Cornwall, UK (approx. 25 miles from Plymouth).

Combined postage if you purchase more than one item. 

I have lots of cards to list (mainly topography), so please ask if you are seeking something particular.
