DUCHESS OF SPARTA of 1951 (IMO 5301758)

            A photo of the 1951 Lithgows Ltd of Port Glasgow, Scotland built oil tanker DUCHESS OF SPARTA (ex DALMORE) of Trent Maritime Co. Ltd. (S. Livanos), seen dry docked in London in a shot taken from another ship sometime between 1952 and 1957.

Originally built as DALMORE for United Steam Navigation Co. Ltd. - Mungo Campbell & Co. Ltd., she was sold to Trent Maritime Co. Ltd. (S. Livanos) and renamed DUCHESS OF SPARTA in 1952. Sold to Atlantic Tankers Ltd. (S. Livanos) in 1957 and renamed ATLANTIC EAGLE, she was sold to Jugoslavenska Tankerska Plovidba and renamed RUDO for further operation in 1962. On May 27th, 1972, she arrived at Santander, Cantabria, Spain to be scrapped by Recuperaciones Submarinas. 

Undated photo, purchased from eBay seller "AntiqueFotos_4U" in 2024.

I do not claim to be the original photographer of this photographic work in any form, way, or shape. Scanned and posted for purposes of reviewing maritime history under the guidance of "fair dealing" laws in the United Kingdom and "fair use" laws in the United States.
