Coal carriers

Coal-carriers walk in a row on the East Asiatic Company’s quay. The firm was established on St. Thomas after the Danish Parliament rejected a treaty on the sale of the islands in 1902. The EAC’s coal harbour was on Hassel Island, and the company quickly became the biggest coal supplier in the Danish West Indies. (Photo courtesy Olasee Davis)
