EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a Clyde Puffer boat from the Victorian period, as depicted in a vintage lantern slide from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online. The Clyde Puffer boats, also known as 'Bosom Puffers,' were a distinctive type of coal-fired, flat-bottomed, paddle-steamer that operated on the River Clyde in Scotland during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph captures the essence of the Edwardian era, with its intricate details and nostalgic charm. The boat in the image is seen gracefully navigating the calm waters, leaving a gentle wake behind. The coal-fired steam engine at the back of the boat is visible, belching out plumes of smoke. The boat's simple yet elegant design is accentuated by the contrasting colors of the water and the sky. The Victorian-era lantern slide adds to the antique feel of the photograph, transporting us back to a time when travel was a more leisurely and romantic experience. The Clyde Puffers were an essential mode of transport for people and goods along the River Clyde, connecting various towns and villages. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and simplicity of a bygone era. The image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in Scottish history, vintage photography, or maritime history. This photograph is not only a beautiful piece of art but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of people during the Victorian and Edwardian periods.
