Small update, haven't done a lot of work due to other commitments but hopefully I'll have her finished before November 7th.

What I've done so far since my last post:

Note he color of the anti-fouling paint is based off a lecture presentation by Michael Schumacher, author of numerous historical books, including the one called "November's Fury," an account of the Great Storm of 1913. Also the funnel marking is of the M.A. Hanna Co. to which the Price's operators, the Mahoning Steamship Co. was a child company.

For further stuff here is Shumacher's lecture and a gallery of historic funnel markings on the great lakes:

After much guess work and hair pulling(not really) I think I can say with confidence that she is done. Also included is a photo of the Price "floating turtle" after the Great Lakes Storm of 1913 however, I will remove it for the Shipbucket version of this picture if you guys find it detestable.

Good work! Especially considering scarcity of source materials. :)
