Excerpt from The Medford Historical Register, Vol. 41 Editor's Note. - This invaluable article extends in detail for posterity the list of known illustrations and models of vessels built in Medford by one of its best-known shipbuilders. It was prepared by the shipbuilder's grandson who, in the Medford Historical Register, Vol. XXXIX, No. 3, had an equally valuable article, "The Lapham Family of Medford, Massachusetts, and Charleston, South Carolina." The subject of the American clipper ship and its forerunners has been rescued from oblivion during the past thirty years by lovers of the sea and of Americana and is now substantially recorded, not only for the American seaboard but also for specific shipbuilding centers. Mr. Hall Gleason's work on Medford is an outstanding example of the latter. While these works give with authority all data connected with the ships that they cover, it appears no effort has been made to list comprehensively the paintings and models that remain today the only visual records of early American ships. Of the paintings scattered from San Francisco to Marseilles, it appears that there is no complete record. Even the monumental work of the Marine Research Society of Salem on the ship paintings by the Roux family does not attempt to list all of the paintings known and states that others exist that are not included in their work.
