The W F Jackson Collection of steamer/ship photographs in

Glasgow University Archives

W F Jackson was the last General Manager of the North British Railway Company, before the "Grouping" of the railways in 1923. He left a large collection of photographic prints, including architectural, landscape, railway station and "steamer" subjects. Among the steamers are views taken in Norway and Sweden (1913), on the Clyde (c1920) and in Orkney (1924). To see a short extract of the railway subjects (click). The following is a short extract from the list of Jackson steamer photographs. Fuller information about the Jackson Collection can be obtained from Glasgow University Archives: e-mail: dutyarch@archives.gla.ac.uk
