      RE: SEA WITCH

      Hello, you posted an image of a card which was a painting of a clipper ship.
      An accompanying item included mention of the 1872 clipper ship SEA WITCH.

      QUESTIONS?

      Do you still have that card?
      Is there anything on the back (on verso) which identifies the clipper ship in the painting?
      Can you provide a higher-res image of the card?
      Do you know where the card came from?

      We are doing some research on the clipper ship SEA WITCH of 1872, and wondering if the painting is indeed of that clipper (there was an earlier one with the same name).

      Many thanks.
      You may reach me directly at windships@earthlink.net
