The Barry Fuz collection consists of approximately 1000 colour slides of commercial shipping taken mainly in NSW ports during the 1990s. Barry spent most of his working life on the Sydney waterfront and had a front row seat as shipping passed through the port.
Photos of vessels from the Blue Star Line are shown below.
