This view was sent to me some time ago (which means I've forgotten who sent it!):

Wrongly captioned POLAR CHIEF which seems to have been a larger whale processing vessel.
This view actually shows the whaler SONDRA, 433gt, completed Smith's Dock, South Bank, Middlesbrough, 10-1937 for Salvesen. In September 1964 found sunk at her moorings in Leith Harbour (Falkland Islands).
