Whaling ...Part of the collection purchased from Brendan Kurtze by the City of Portland in 199..?Whaling and whales have played an important part in Portland's history. The whaling industry was established in Portland in the 1830s by William Dutton. During a brief 10 year period, whales were almost hunted to extinction and the industry slowed down and wound up in the 1840sWhaling implement, iron, painted gloss black, shaft with screw on one end and turned back handle on the other. A weld near the handle perhaps indicates that this may not be the original configuration.Front: - Back: -whaling, whale hunting, maritime
