The ship "Finland" was chartered by the U. S. Olympic Committee to carry the American Olympic Team to the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm, Sweden. It departed New York harbor on June 14, 1912 (the scene photographed above), and served as training and living quarters for the team as it crossed the Atlantic and during the games as well, when it was stationed in Stockholm harbor as a floating hotel. Story in The New York Times, February 27, 1912, discussing plans for the voyage: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9905E0D6173CE6...
