Description:(This description is AI generated and may contain inaccuracies.)
This collectible chip card from the Isle of Man features detailed colored illustrations of six historic Manx fishing vessels dating from 1700 to 1900. Each vessel is depicted sailing on a green-tinted sea with a light blue sky behind. The vessels all have green sails and various hull shapes, reflecting the evolution of fishing boat design over two centuries.
At the top row, three vessels are shown from left to right: the "Sconce c.1750," characterized by a single large sail on a short hull; the "Smack c.1797," with a similar silhouette but slightly larger sails; and the "Wherry c.1810," which features twin sails on a broader hull. The bottom row displays three more boats from left to right: the "Nickey c.1860," a wider vessel with two main sails; the "Lugger c.1860," with a distinctive lug sail and an additional smaller sail; and the "Nortty c.1890," showing a refined, dual-masted design.
Below the images, a banner reads "MANX FISHING VESSELS 1700-1900" with the denomination of "£2.00" at the left and "21 units" on the right side of the card. The card’s style reflects maritime heritage, highlighting the traditional fishing vessels used around the Isle of Man during this historical period.
