The S.S. Cornwall took relatives of mine to New Zealand in 1908.
I believe it was owned and operated by the New Zealand Shipping Company which brought frozen NZ lamb to the UK and also carried passengers/emigrants back to New Zealand.

not a postcard - but there is a splendid painting of the S S Cornwall found here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/arts/yourpainti...ornwall-188664 - what's more you can print a personal copy if you wish...

Just wondered if you had seen that this ship was expected to arrive at Timaru at 10am on 18th July 1908?
She was expected to load frozen meat & other produce for West of England ports....

Thank you one and all - think I've found the one I'm looking for
