An illustrated album by Brian Lemin (July 2020) of ship and other seagoing vessel motifs carved, painted or drawn on East Devon lace bobbins. Each entry presents photographs or drawings of bobbins with their inscriptions, initials and dates (roughly 1813 to 1918), with brief comments on identifying features such as hairy hearts, fouled anchors, cannon placements, fishing nets and sails. Some entries note bobbins held at the RAMM Exeter museum that could not be shown, and the author asks readers for further information.
