Additional Details

Photographs are mostly in 8x10 inch format or something close to that. Two of the images show the ship before the addition of lifeboats all around the upper deck. Interestingly, one of the pre-lifeboat photos is on a mount marked "1 Broadway" showing that it was used for promotional purposes by the I.M.M., even though the ship had clearly been refitted before the I.M.M. acquired The White Star Line. Numerous copy photos accompany the lot, but are not included in the count.
