ATXURI-MENDI (1929) - Wm. Gray

This print came to me several years back identified and captioned as being a ship completed in 1921 by Ropners at Stockton, but listed in registers as ATXERI-MENDI (see: http://www.teesbuiltships.co.uk/ropner/ ... di1921.htm).
However, it can be clearly seen that the name on the image is ATXURI-MENDI and, by reference only to TEESBUILT, never mind any unnecessary double-checking with Miramar, it seems either the person who noted those details (usually totally reliable) or, perhaps, the original copyright holder, simply picked the wrong ship.
Full details of the ATXURI-MENDI are at: http://www.teesbuiltships.co.uk/gray/at ... di1929.htm and as from the two entries in TEESBUILT it can be seen the two ships overlapped in the Aznar fleet for several years, I'm now confident this is the 1929 Gray-built vessel.
