Photograph of the S. S. Del Norte being towed out of its berth in New Orleans and into the Mississippi River. The Mississippi River flows across the foreground. In the near distance, the S. S. Del Norte exits its berth. It is viewed from its port side and almost spans the entire width of the image. Two smaller tugboats abut the near side of the ship. Large vertical streaks of white stretch along the left and right edges.
