EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, titled "Herring fishing coalers, Great Yarmouth," transports us back in time to the Edwardian era of the early 1900s. The image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases a group of hardworking fishermen and their coalers off the coast of Great Yarmouth, England. The coalers, traditional fishing boats with a flat bottom and a raised forecastle, are anchored in the calm, shimmering waters. The fishermen, dressed in heavy coats and hats, are busy at work, shoveling coal onto the boats from larger supply vessels. The lanterns on the boats illuminate the scene, casting a warm, inviting glow against the darkening sky. Herring fishing was a significant industry in Great Yarmouth during this period, and coal was an essential resource for powering the boats' engines and cooking the fish on board. The coalers would travel to the North Sea to fish for herring, often staying out for weeks at a time. The photograph captures the raw beauty and harsh realities of life at sea during this era. The fishermen's determination and resilience are evident as they work tirelessly to ensure a successful catch. The image also highlights the importance of community and camaraderie, with the fishermen working together to load the coal and prepare for their journey out to sea. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse into the lives of the fishermen and their families who made their living from the sea. It is a poignant reminder of the rich maritime history of Great Yarmouth and the importance of the fishing industry to the region.
