"The paddle punt Warrane was built in 1883 and had an open wheelhouse. She was rated as being able to carry fourteen vehicles and up to 109 passengers." (ref. PIctorial History of Ferries, Graeme Andrews, Reed 1982). Coincidentally Harold Cazneaux photographed the same (altered) ferry ca. 1920 - nla.gov.au/nla.pic-an2345949 - used as an illustration in the above book. Another later picture and more information: www.ferriesofsydney.com/warrane.html

The horse ferry used to operate between Milsons Point and the west side of Fort Macquarie (Bennelong Point), from where this photo was taken. See this 1895 map of Sydney - www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm3443-sd&rgn=0...

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Here is a test for you. Is this photo the interior of the Dawes Point Baths (see note) or somewhere else; if so where?

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] It seems the old workhorse 'Warrane' was an object of affection. Did a bit of Troving - there's a half-scale "builders model" at the Powerhouse Museum dated 1882 - from.ph/211568

This is misidentified; the Chattahoochie River in Atlanta is not navigable by vessels of this size. I suspect this is the Ohio River because of the name of the steamboat pictured.

Hi there, Thanks for your help. The Documerica photos came to us with these captions, so we are looking into correcting the mistake Kristin U.S. National Archives

This is indeed Louisville, KY. The bridges from closest to farthest away are the Big Four Railroad Bridge, the Kennedy Bridge (I-65) and the Clark Memorial Bridge. And, of course, the Belle of Louisville.
