Author: Photographer unknown. The work is typical of the postcards of Frederick J Paul of Calstock, or Edward Chapman of Dawlish, but neither can be identified as the author of this particular one. J. H. Quick of Fore Street, Saltash, was probably the most prolific publisher of Tamar steamer postcards, but this "in a landscape" view is not his usual style.
