The Maritime Prints business is for sale. At 78 yrs of age and after 26 years I’ve reluctantly concluded that I need to draw stumps. But a huge amount of love and effort has gone into the project so it needs to go to someone who can lavish a similar amount of care on it - it’s been a hugely rewarding business. Is there anyone out there who would like to take it on? Please contact Rick Cosby on 01460 63776 or [email protected].

A soft , grey and misty day in the Forth as battleships of the KIng Edward VII Class lie to their anchors, pinnaces plying to and fro, boats lying at their booms, a cutter pulling past in the left foreground. The new battle cruiser TIGER is over on the right. Ships appear to to be raising steam? Clever Wyllie has it all, from the subtle colours to the action and movement everywhere.
