What a great picture and I think Gerolf is probably right, it does look like one of Brooklebank's freighters immediately astern of her. Beaver State was built in 1944, 7,600 gross tons, 455 ft long and powerd by a steam turbine giving a 16½ knot service speed. She was launched as South Africa Victory and re-named in 1949.

Thank you for that info gentlmen! The photo is from an old scrap book I found. I probably should have posted it in 1950s ships category, but the date on the photo was 1962.

Hello,
beautiful historic photo with the 3 general cargoes in a row.
the second vessel seems to be a vessel of the British Brooklebank line.
Regards
Gerolf
