SS CERAMIC

  • FredV45 said:
    On board photo of the White Star Line built the Ceramic in 1913, a giant liner then for the Australian service. It carried troops to the conflict zones in World War 1, served on the White Star passenger and cargo service between GB and Australia and New Zealand, and was torpedoed in 1942.

    Beautifully sharp viewed original size. What a tragic story.
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    Mangrove Rat It's a great image isn't it? I particularly like the woman waving her hat with the water spurting out, lower right. Watch this space, there's more photographs from the same day still to come!

    These clothes look like pre WW1; perhaps the September 1913 visit to Melbourne?
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    FredV45 beachcomber australia Thanks folks! Agreed re the clothes, they are definately pre-war.

    It looks like the folks on the bridge wing are having a tour of the Bridge!
