Notes
English: J. Readhead & Co. of South Shields built the general cargo sail- and steamship Rishanglys in 1877. She was owned by Robert Harrowing of Whitby, was registered at 1198 GRT and 778 NRT. She was 242 feet long, had a 31-foot beam, and was engined by her builders. After a routinely successful career of 20 years she was sold to Robert Jobson of West Hartlepool in 1897.[1] In 1898 Handelsbolaget Sölvesborg Skeppsvarf (Otto Banck) of Stockholm acquired the ship and renamed her Göta. She changed ownership again in 1918 and 1931, remaining in Swedish hands. She was scrapped toward the end of 1935.

Licensing edit

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1926, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 95 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
