Photograph of the Standard Oil Company tanker, J. H. McEachern, sailing through Port Valdez. The waterway occupies the majority of the image. It spans the foreground and extends back into the distance. The tanker sails just below the top edge, left-of-center. It is viewed at a slight distance from the side as it sails towards the right. Birds are visible flocking around the tanker. Hills rise across the opposite shoreline in the far distance.
