Landing-Craft Production at Boston Navy Yard
Bring a little Charlestown home.
Matte Hardcover Journal · 150 lined pages · 5.71 × 8.07 inches
Before heading out, gather a pen and this journal for the notes that come up away from the desk. Repeated landing-craft hulls form a Boston Navy Yard production line, letting the arrangement of boats show the scale of the work in the picture.
The 1942 source records production-line view of repeated landing-craft hulls and shipbuilding labor. The yard's piers and buildings connect this particular view to Boston's history of shipbuilding, repair and harbor work. They preserve a working waterfront at the time of the source.
The hulls connect a particular craft with repeated production, keeping shipbuilding labor and the organization of the waterfront within the Navy Yard's historical record. It can go in a bag for notes away from home, or stay beside the books and work on your desk.
