View of bulkheads in place on the 'Naess Crusader' at the North Sands shipyard, Sunderland, 14 March 1972 (TWAM ref. DT.TUR/2/59686B). These photographs were taken by the Newcastle-based firm Turners (Photography) Ltd. They celebrate the construction of the OBO (oil/bulk/ore) carrier ‘Naess Crusader’, covering the early stages in January 1972 through her launch on 21 December 1972 to her completion and sea trials in July 1973. ‘Naess Crusader’ and her sister ship ‘Nordic Chieftain’ were built by Sunderland Shipbuilders Ltd at the firm’s North Sands Shipyard for Anglo Eastern Bulkships Ltd. They were the largest ships ever built on the River Wear. The memory of ‘Naess Crusader’ is integral to the Sunderland Keel Line, a new public artwork, opened in 2015, which celebrates the City’s shipbuilding heritage. The Keel Line is 291.7 metres long and that distance was chosen because it represents the full length of ‘Naess Crusader’. This album is a reminder of Sunderland’s proud industrial heritage and a tribute to the skill and dedication of her shipyard workers.

Beauty Bar in the East Village just celebrated its 20-year anniversary this spring. This theme #bar was created in 1995 when Paul Devitt found the former "Thomas Beauty Salon" on 14th Street. The 40-year old #hair #salon had all of its original chrome-domed hair dryers and chandeliers and its original #signage which was all kept in place. You can get a #manicure and a drink at this bar and enjoy looking all of the #retro salon items. #storefront #disappearingfaceofnewyork #sign #signgeeks #eastvillage #ipullledoverforthis #beautybar #beauty
