This print takes us back to the bustling industrial era of 1940s Newcastle. The image showcases the collier ship Fulham, a symbol of maritime strength and trade, as it is being loaded with coal on the River Tyne at Dunston Staithes. This iconic location served as a vital hub for transporting goods across the country. The sheer size of the Fulham is awe-inspiring, emphasizing its crucial role in fueling Britain's energy needs during this post-war period. Towering over the river, it stands as a testament to human ingenuity and determination in harnessing natural resources for progress. The scene exudes an air of ceaseless activity; workers can be seen meticulously loading coal onto the ship's deck while others oversee operations from nearby vessels.
