Indeed Mike,and as well as being a coaster enthusiast based at Portishead he was the author of many books on coastal and other shipping. I bet you have quite a few-and can bamboozle we quizzers with those pictures!

Re: Bernard McCall
I have for years dealt with a Gerald Lee Maritime Books Bexhill-On-Sea. Sadly he passed away last year and his wife continued with the business but has now decided to call it a day. They have published a final catalogue of all their stock and I notice there are fifteen Bernard McCall publications included priced around the £2.00 mark.
Shortly it will only be Ebay. if looking for books.
