历史记录
George Schneider (May 2026) writes: As built, this vessel had a distinctly "streamlined" (in the old-fashioned meaning) appearance, and was designed for the run from Los Angeles to Avalon on Catalina Island. This is by no means the best-quality image I have of her, but I chose it because it shows the rounded metal work the best.
