- Hannibal, Mo. Photos - Finding someone who has not read books by Mark Twain would be rare. Many, however, have not visited Hannibal, Mo., where Samuel Clemens made his home and ultimately created what today powers a continuing economic boom of sorts for that Mississippi River town. I snapped a few pictures of famous Hannibal landmarks (and some not particularly famous) that provide a smattering of the ambiance of Mark Twain land. Many have appeared on postcards. They could be new to some readers who have never ventured to Hannibal. The 13 views provided here are all within a small radius within walking distance of about one city block between the two most distant sites. These are but a few of the many places to enjoy in Hannibal. Posted by B&B.

- Mystery boat, mystery people. But not totally. The boat in this picture sent in by John Miller is, as yet, unidentified. However, Dan Burnett, Boonville, Mo., has been able to ID the vessel as one of Federal Barge Lines’ city boats (like Vicksburg, St. Louis, Baton Rouge, etc.). He also identified the man on the left as Capt. Archie L. Howell, who lived in Boonville but was born in Arrow Rock, Mo., in 1914. The name of the engineer to his right is still a mystery. John thinks it might be the Helena. Anyone know? Posted by John Miller.
- Federal Barge Line’s Huck Finn on its trial run just after it had been repowered. The photograph was taken at Alton, Ill., in July 1947, but there is no ID for the photographer. The vessel was originally steam prop with triple expansion engines. Five of these barges are Goltra Barges, which could carry 3,000 tons. The repower gave her new GM diesels and she was rated at 2,200 hp. Posted by John Miller.
