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].

This very well known, greatly prized but relatively rare etching by WLW needs little introduction.  Not only is it scarce but sadly, copies of it that do come to light are often blighted by foxings and other unsightly stains and marks, the products of ageing for over 100 years.  These reproductions have, of course, no foxings or stains and are unfaded.
