Description
Photograph of a large ship skirting the coast of Alaska, 1935. A large ship cuts through the water, leaving a white trail in its wake as it travels left. The body of the large ship is curved near its ends. Two large masts are visible on the main deck, and a tall smokestack can also be seen. A thin trail of smoke is visible rising from the stack. Behind it, one can see the coast of Alaska, with a dense forest composing the slopes of the land.
