EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage image, hailing from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to 1907. In the photograph, a Pilot Cobble, a traditional small fishing boat used by harbor pilots to guide larger vessels into port, is being gently towed by a majestic ship. The Pilot Cobble, with its distinctive lantern affixed to the mast, cuts through the tranquil waters, leaving a trail of ripples in its wake. The ship, with its tall masts and sails billowing in the wind, towers over the Cobble, showcasing the vast size difference between the two vessels. The scene is reminiscent of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, with their emphasis on exploration, innovation, and the importance of the sea in shaping the world. The Pilot Cobble, an essential part of the maritime community, played a crucial role in ensuring the safe passage of ships through treacherous waters. The use of a larger vessel to tow the Cobble was a common practice, allowing the Pilot to reach the larger ships and guide them to safety. The image, with its timeless beauty and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the past and the rich maritime heritage of England during the early 1900s. The lantern on the Cobble, a beacon of safety and guidance, adds an intriguing element to the photograph, further emphasizing the importance of the role of the Pilot in the maritime world.
