            NASA Ames Visitor Center/Giftshop
            (Building N-223).

            Lecture Topic: "Ships of the 16th Century"

            Guest Speaker: JIM CAMPBELL MARINE ARTIST

Through his pen-and-ink drawings, one of the oldest media known to man,
Jim communicates his vast knowledge of sailing ships from the 16th
Century. The artist has illustrated many books over the years, one of
his latest commissions was a book for the Jack London Museum in
Oakland. Other credits include his commission by the United States
Postal Service to design official cancellations and cachets.

At present Jim has designed 28 cachets for stamp collectors throughout
the world. He designed the One Hundred and Fifty Year Gold Rush and
Statehood cachets for California. Jim's unique artwork can be seen in
San Francisco at the Maritime Museum, the Scrimshaw Gallery in
Sausalito, the Boat Works in Carmel, and the Maritime Museum in
Monterey. Campbell's pen-and-ink drawings now hang in private
collections throughout the world in Japan, Hong Kong, Germany, England,
Canada and the United States. Most recently, the artist has found
success in doing his marine artwork on nautical charts. Jim is a self
taught-artist. Many of his articles and drawings have been published in
SEAWAY'S Magazine.

The Ames Exchange is pleased to sponsor the Ames Sailing Club. The
Sailing Club meets the second Thursday of every month (Feb-Nov) from
11:30 - 1:00 in the Special Events room of the Ames Visitor
Center/Giftshop. Every month features a new speaker and a new topic,
ranging from local sailors and local destinations to international
cruising destinations and world famous professional sailors. Fun and
informative topics such as GPS and sextant navigation, tides/currents,
sail trim and sailing safety are also part of regular club meetings.
