One Illustration titled ‘Dangers of the Whale Fishery’ showing a whaling scene with people falling out of upturned boats trying to catch a whale. Image includes crop marks. Back of the image has lots of annotations including ‘Gooch’ which may be a reference to the artist Thomas Gooch (1750 – 1802). [A stamp on the back says the image was published in 1936 but this is unlikely to be the original date of creation. See related objects: 1983-5236/54302, 1983-5236/54316, 1983-5236/54320].
