A Bowaters AEC 6 wheeler unloading newsprint reels at Liverpool Docks. The load is being unsheeted

If you can remember soaking wet sheets and Liverpool docks together , is that a bonus ?

[leyland600]

I hope it was the ship’s crew manning the derrick and not dockers, they would have wanted a tea break between slinging the reels and setting them in the hold. Yes rigsby I have been there and got the T shirt in fact I have a whole wardrobe full of T shirts all with Liverpool and Birkenhead printed on them.
