A fine shot of one of the 15,300-ton, miniature UNITED STATES-like sisters, built in 1958 for service between New York and Curacao, La Guairá, Aruba, Nassau and Port Everglades.

Another in a series of superb paintings by Carl G. Evers for the Grace Line, which appeared in magazine ads during the 1950's and 60's.
