EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment of the sponsorship of the cargo ship Str. F.P. Jones on March 8, 1913. The image, created by an unknown photographer, shows a smiling woman, believed to be the sponsor, holding a bouquet of flowers as she stands next to the American flag. The ship, named after Frederick P. Jones, is seen in the background with the Detroit Publishing Company banner visible on the crane. The event took place at a shipyard, likely in the United States, and the industrial scene is filled with the hustle and bustle of launching the freighter. The ship, adorned with the Stars and Stripes, is surrounded by water and other boats, adding to the maritime atmosphere. The dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in image is a testament to the rich history of the shipping industry in America during the 1910s. The photograph is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, adding to the heritage and historical significance of this moment in time.
