About Me
- Name: Ookpik
- Location: Michigan, United States
I began my interest in vernacular photography by a chance acquisition of over 10,000 negatives dating from the late 1920's through the early 1970's. Luckily, I knew what I had was something more than "someone's old pictures." This cache of old images became the impetus for me to create two Photoblogs: Ookpik’s Negativity and Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes. Ookpik’s Negativity contains photos that I would like to know more about while Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes features photos of ships that I am trying to identify.

If the color of the funnel on the vessel being passed by the Pittsburger was a dull green with a black band at the top, then I would say that it is an old Mohawk boat. But the two ships from their fleet that come to mind both had their stern masts forward of the funnel.
The Pittsburger? Could be the Trimble, Ziesing, Williams, etc. Maybe from the 600" class of boats.
