The ambiance of the ocean liner era is recreated through 585 color photos of objects used on board with identification and text. Since the late 1890s, shipping lines commissioned the unique furniture, china, silverware, glassware, vases, ashtrays, playing cards, menus, and stationery shown here to commemorate their ships, from the Art Deco Normandie and the stainless steel S.S. United States, to the old-world luxury of the "Queens."
