Touring in S.A. and Victoria : Port Pirie
Views taken during the West Broken Hill Football Club tours of South Australia and Victoria, 1925: Ship tied up at the wharf, Port Pirie. A researcher suggests that the small steamer is the "SS Nelcebee", built in Port Adelaide in 1883. When this photo was taken the ship was based in Port Pirie and owned by the Adelaide Steam Tug Company. She was taken out of service in 1928 and converted to an auxiliary cargo sailing vessel, and was used like this until 1982, when the vessel was gifted to the South Australian Maritime Museum. The vessel survives on dry land at Port Adelaide.
Port Pirie about 1900
Shipping, Port Pirie about 1905. Information from a researcher: "I believe the ship next the wharf and bow on is the Glasgow four-masted barque 'Earl of Dunmore' built on the Clyde 1891. The reason I believe this may be the Earl of Dunmore is she had a scroll, or fiddle bow, at the fore-stem rather than the more usual figure-head, this scroll was painted dark colour probably brown, whereas the usual figure heads were usually white, her rig was of double topsails and single t'gallants as the ship in the photo, and had the same arrangement of painted ports, and single hawse-pipe hole each side, (some ships had two each side). Earl of Dunmore was in Port Pirie at least twice, in 1894 and 1897. Another characteristic the Earl of Dunmore had was, she had no chart house on the poop aft, that detail is not visible in this photo.
