The 36,000-ton tanker, Esso Durham, proudly stands tall after her successful launch at the historic Walker Naval shipyard on the picturesque River Tyne in Newcastle. This print from Memory Lane Prints captures a moment frozen in time during the vibrant 1950s era of tugs, transport, and ships. The sheer magnitude of this colossal vessel is awe-inspiring as it dominates the frame with its imposing presence. The skilled craftsmanship that went into constructing such a mammoth structure is evident in every detail captured by NCJ - Kemsley's lens. The image showcases the remarkable engineering feat achieved by combining modern technology with traditional shipbuilding techniques. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination to conquer vast oceans for trade and exploration.
