"Sapulpa" The tanker "Sapulpa", designated as hull #1030 by the US Shipping Board, was built by the Moore Shipbuilding Co., Oakland, CA. She was launched on July 20, 1921 and changed owners and names several times over her 34 year life. She was eventually scrapped in 1955 and was, at that time, named "Norma". "Sapulpa" is depicted here getting a much overdue "bottom job" while shipyard maintenance personnel are re-stringing the powerlines prior to re-establishing their proper catenary. Watercolor on Szabo 300LB WC paper. Available, exclusively, at the John Raimondi Gallery, 15 Pleasant St., Rockport, MA.
