ARTIST: WORDEN WOOD (1880-1943) SIZE: 25 1/2 x 19 1/8 in./65 x 48.6 cm PRINTER: DESCRIPTION: Surging through choppy open water with nothing but lesser schooners dotting the background horizon to add perspective to her majesty, the Washington is a sight to behold in this Wood poster portrait. Launched on August 20, 1932, the Washington sailed on her maiden voyage from New York to Hamburg on May 10, 1933. At the outbreak of war, the liner was heading for Europe, so after calls at Copenhagen and Le Havre, she returned to New York, after which time the liner made two round-trip voyages to Bordeaux in order to repatriate stranded Americans in Europe. The Maritime Commission granted permission for the Washington and her sister ship, Manhattan, to operate a passenger and freight service from New York to Italy, which commenced on January 13, 1940. However, after Italy's entry into the war, the service was ended. In 1941, both the Washington and the Manhattan were taken over by the U.S. Navy, with the Washington being renamed the USS Mount Vernon and sailing for Manila as a troop transport. After being released back into civilian service, she made her first postwar voyage from New York to Southampton on April 2, 1946 to bring war brides and children back to the United States. In the end, the Manhattan was laid-up in the Hudson River, sold for demolition, and broken up in 1964. This poster is in the original presentation framing of the U.S. Lines. (Travel; Ships; American)
