The Ocean Monarch was built by Vickers-Armstrong in 1951, pictured here alongside the Queen of Bermuda (built 1933). The SS Ocean Monarch was the first postwar-built ship designed especially for the American cruise market. Her features were so admired that she won a gold medal by the American Institute for Designing for her "outstanding beauty and unusual design features of a cruise ship."
