[QUOTE="mp.kunst, post: 235353, member: 4395"]Undoubtedly a drawing of the American radar steamship S.S. Savannah. This ship, built in 1819, was the first ship to cross the Atlantic Ocean under steam from Savannah Harbor - South Carolina to Liverpool UK. After Liverpool, the ship continued to St. Petersburg to return to Savannah Harbor. Despite its historic journey, Savannah was no commercial success as a steamship and was converted into a sailing ship shortly after returning in America. It is not a print, but everything is hand-drawn with charcoal on laminated paper. Size: about 54 x 45 cm. Signed with H. HAMBÜCKER and dated 1964 right bottom. And that is the problem. This seems to be a good quality piece but who is H Hambϋcker. If somebody know more please let me know.
