About Me
- Ookpik
- 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 last name ends in Boy, I am stumped, as I do not have a picture of the old Sand Boy which was scrapped in the early 60's, or at least left the lakes by then. That's the only Boy that comes to mind.
If it ends in Bay, there were several Bays in operation back when this shot was taken and even some Bays are sailing now. I can sure say what Bays it's not, better than what Bay it might be!
My guess, by process of elimination , would be the photo was of the old Heron Bay (1). Even Heron Bay (2) has since been scrapped, but I will say Heron Bay (1) and let others make their comments known.
