1960 Fishing Boat at Gloucester Massachusetts Wharfs

This classic 1960 postcard captures a working fishing boat, possibly a trawler, moored at a bustling wharf in Gloucester, Massachusetts. The vessel is painted white with a green hull and is outfitted with multiple masts, rigging lines, and hanging nets—clear signs of its active use in the local fishing industry.

In the background, other boats and waterfront buildings paint a vivid picture of daily life in one of New England’s most historic fishing ports. The calm harbor water beautifully reflects the boat and sky, lending the scene a quiet, hardworking charm.

A perfect addition for collectors of maritime postcards, Gloucester history, or classic New England coastal scenes.
