"America's Ship - The S.S. "United States" The famous liner, also known as the "Big Ship", departs New York's Hudson River for a transatlantic run in 1954. The "United States" was THE liner to be on, and be seen on...luminaries from world leaders to Hollywood royalty (Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, Bob Hope, to name a few) were regular passengers on her runs between New York harbor and Europe. To this day, for her class of vessel, she holds the transatlantic speed record, the "Blue Riband," set in 1952. "America's Ship - The S.S. "United States" is faithfully reproduced as an archival-quality print from McGehee's original oil painting, each hand-signed by the artist. Print image size 11" x 19 3/4".
