Donor stated in a letter (see collection file) 'this was the last operating whaling station on the northeast coast and I believed it was closed down by 1971 . . . ship's crew were all Norwegian and some had been together since childhood and had participated in whaling operations in Antartica.' Donor's notes: Whale catcher ship CHESTER and Blandford whaling station operations, September 1969.
