I have not found specific info on this mine barge/lighter yet except that its home port was Wilhelmshaven and it did duty on the North Sea.
there is another Andenkenmuschel made by or for
B. Griepenburg, also from Minenprahm II, on the site Europeana 1914-1918 :

I started making this and realized it reminded me a lot of that rainbow blanket that my mom had made when I was a baby.
The Shell is the reinvention of the bookcase! This rotating unit was designed to literally delivery a "spin" to the any living space. Featuring 5 partitions, this cool piece adds additional storage and a hint of sophistication to any space.
Some shells I found on the beach were lying outside the house to dry, still amazed about the beautiful lines and colors.
The dried shell of a sea urchin, without its prickly cover. There are many of these scattered along the beach here where I'm staying in Maine.

Miller's (2,579 square feet)

This store was built in 1985. It was formerly a Happy Store Fuel Mart that became a Mobil/Miller Mart combo in 1994.
These 10 year olds were not put off by the idea of painting these shells without pencil first. They then used a line drawing on an acetate overlay to create an extra dimension.
I know, shells again :D This one was for the course I'm doing and I quite liked it. And yes, the shells came home with me!
My policy is to take a photograph and toss them back, as I think our beach needs all the sand it can get.
