S.S. AMSTERDAM, negative
Port bow view of S.S. AMSTERDAM at Cardiff Docks.
The Dutch frigate Amsterdam in the Roath Basin, c.1972. Built in the city after which she was named in 1958, this vessel was one of the Friesland class of frigates, all of which were named after provinces and cities in the Netherlands. The entire class has gradually been withdrawn since 1975. (Source: Shipping at Cardiff: Photographs from the Hansen Collection 1920-1975 by David Jenkins, 1993).
