Identifying an 1834 sailing ship

by Tom
(Cincinnati)

I have a piece of stoneware with the name "John B. Wilson" and dated 1834 with a sailing ship incised on it.

Is there a way I could send a photo to someone to possibly identify the ship or the type at least?

Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom,
You clearly have your reasons why you don't publish your e-mail address; mine are the same, so I suggested facebook. However, for your sake I opened a special address, easily to be disposed of, for this occasion: guillaume.bestevaer@orange.fr So send your pictures, please.
Regards, Han.
