Some of you may be familiar with the on-line, open access CORIOLIS: Interdisciplinary Journal of Maritime Studies. During a visit to their website today I found the following notice: "The last issue of CORIOLIS was indeed the last issue of CORIOLIS. The journal has been a home for both seasoned and new scholars alike and the range of subject matter produced has been a treat. In the place of CORIOLIS, Mystic Seaport Museum will be producing a new peer-reviewed journal called MAINSHEET. See the description at https://www.mysticseaport.org/mainsheet/ CORIOLIS articles will be available at ijms.nmdl.org for the next year at which time the archives will transition to Mystic Seaport Museum's website. Thanks for your support over the last thirteen years." From the Mainsheet website: "In September 2023, Mystic Seaport Museum will launch an exciting new initiative, Mainsheet, a biannual peer-reviewed interdisciplinary journal, available simultaneously online and in-print. The goal of Mainsheet is to fill a gap in refereed scholarship on maritime studies that has been left open by the dissolution of the American Neptune and other like-minded journals over the last 20 years. While several excellent journals still exist internationally, Mainsheet will be the only publication of its type produced by an American maritime museum. What will also set Mainsheet apart are: its multi-disciplinary perspectives; its accessibility to a broad global diverse audience on issues past, present, and future; and its freshness of design and distribution. The editorial board will represent a national and international team of invited expert scholars from various fields and partner institutions, with guest editors for special editions." The Coriolis archive can be found here: https://ijms.nmdl.org/index-

We are downsizing and I need to clear out some space. I have an extensive collection of ship research and modeling journals and magazines that I'd prefer to give to someone who will use them rather than dump them at the recycler's. Nautical Research Journal: A nearly complete set of volumes 45-60, missing the following issues: 45/3&4, 46/1&2, 48/1, 50/4, and 58/3. Seaways' Ships in Scale: A nearly complete set of volumes 45-60, missing the following issues: VIII-XXVIII, missing the following issues: VIII/1-3, XXVI/4-5, XXVII/1-2 & 4-6 and XXVIII/1&6. Three of the issues have been disbound (but no pages are missing) for scanning as part of the NRJ/Seaways digitalization project. Also includes Seaways III/4. Maritime Life and Traditions: I have two sets: Nos. 4-23, 26, 28-34 Nos. 15-18, 30, 31 and 34. I am giving away complete sets, NOT individual issues. Please let me know which set (or sets) you want and your zip so I can calculate shipping rates. I will take PayPal (preferred) or check. -
Maritime historian John Lyman wrote and edited a mimeographed news letter called Log Chips: A Periodical Publication of Recent Maritime History. Starting in July 1948, each issue was twelve pages and each volume consisted of 12 issues. There were four volumes between 1948 and 1959, and Norman Brouwer edited a series of Log Chips Supplements in 1980. From Issue 1: LOG CHIPS, of which this is the first issue, has been created to preserve and disseminate in a concise form the research of the Editor and his correspondents, and to serve as a means of communication among them. It is in no sense intended to be a competitor of “Sea Breezes”, "American Neptune", “Steamboat Bill”, or the other excellent periodicals already existing in the field of maritime history and nautical research. It is intended rather to supplement those publications by presenting, in an extremely simple format, lists and tabular matter of slight interest to the casual reader but of permanent value to the serious student, preliminary treatments of aspects of recent maritime history for circulation among those having personal knowledge of the facts and events; and observations and notes for which no suitable medium of publication at present exists. Each mimeographed issue offered a variety of information to the historian. Topics were wide ranging, and the collection is a wonderful resource for those people who are interested in commercial sail in the Pacific after about 1860. Most issues included a List of Launchings in the United Kingdom, biographical articles, launching lists for ship builders up and down the coast (such as Matthew Turner, Hans D. Bendixsen and the Hall Brothers). Lyman likewise covered the East Coast, particularly New England. The men and the companies who built the East Coast schooners were included, along with lists of schooners and their story from seven masts down to three masts. Why do I mention this, you might ask? Well, chummly, it seems that, through the generosity of the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, pretty much the entire collection of Log Chips has been posted to The Internet Archive. Note that these are NOT Google scans, but appear to have been done at a higher resolution specifically for the Archive. This is a treasure not to be missed! Here is a link to one issue – at the bottom of the page you will see more. https://archive.org/details/LogChips1948July Here is a bibliography of Lyman's various writings as well. lyman.pdf
