EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Str. Eastern States, 1901," captures the majestic beauty of the passenger steamer, Eastern States, as it sails along the coast of the United States. The image, created using a dry plate or glass negative process, showcases the intricate details of the ship's design, from its tall, funnel-like smokestacks to the ornate decorations adorning its hull. The Eastern States was a prominent passenger ship operated by the Detroit Publishing Company, a leading publisher of postcards and photographic prints during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The company, founded by Detroit Publishing Co. President Edwin H. Husher and photographer William A. Livingstone, is known for its extensive collection of images documenting American life and landscapes during this period. The photograph's geographical location is not explicitly stated, but the ship appears to be sailing along the eastern seaboard of the United States, likely making its way from one port to another. The image offers a glimpse into the rich maritime history of the country and the important role that passenger ships played in transportation and travel during the early 1900s. The Eastern States, with its elegant lines and powerful engines, embodies the spirit of adventure and exploration that defined the era. This historic photograph is a testament to the past and a reminder of the enduring allure of the sea and the ships that have sailed upon it.
