Tinplate 9 — Lincoln


Lincoln. A now almost entirely vanished volcanic island, located 15,641 nautical miles off the coast of New Zealand. It was discovered by chance in 1865 when a hot air balloon carrying a group of refugees from the American Civil War made an emergency landing on the island. On its black beaches, seals, crustaceans, and mollusks of various kinds once thrived. The island’s interior was dominated by a plateau, surrounded by two snow-covered volcanoes. The island’s sole inhabitant turned out to be another refugee, the renowned submarine captain, Nemo. Some time after the Americans’ arrival, a massive volcanic eruption devastated most of the island. Today, only a few barren rocks remain. The island is also known as The Mysterious Island.


Lincoln. En numera nästan helt försvunnen vulkanö belägen 15 641 sjömil. utanför Nya Zeelands kust. Den upptäcktes av en tillfällighet 1865 när en luftballong med en grupp flyktingar från det amerikanska inbördeskriget nödlandade på ön. På de svarta stränderna levde säl, kräftdjur och blötdjur av olika slag. Inlandet dominerades av en platå omgiven av två snöklädda vulkaner. Öns ende invånare visade sig vara en annan flykting, den berömde ubåtskaptenen Nemo. Någon tid efter amerikanernas ankomst inträffade ett stort vulkan- utbrott som ödelade större delar av ön. Idag återstår bara några kala klippor. Ön kallas också The Mysterious Island.
