Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of passengers clustered together on the top deck of the S. S. Catalina. A woman stands in partial view in the foreground at center. She approaches the camera. Behind her, many passengers stand, facing towards the left. They appear to occupy all available space on the deck as it extends into the distance at center. About halfway down the ship and along the right edge, a small cabin stands behind the passengers. A few small funnels stand around it and a large, solitary stack rises. Rigging stretches overhead at left. Water extends towards the horizon in the background at left.
