Arthur Henri Poole - Mr Greenfield's Invention
Zusammenfassung
A rather unusual photo in our collections of an "invention" by a Mr Greenfield (no other information). Presumably it was a mechanism for launching lifeboats on a grand scale...Stop me if I'm being too fanciful here, but the Titanic sank on 15 April 1912. Could that tragedy have given rise to this invention? One survivor of the sinking was a Mr William Bertram Greenfield ( http://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-survivor/william-bertram-greenfield.html ) who escaped in Lifeboat 7 - a relative, perhaps?..Date: 6 August 1912..NLI Ref.: P_WP_2401a ( P_WP_2401a )
