Pleasure Steamers, Detroit, Mich.

One postcard of two excursion steamships at the dock at the foot of Woodward Avenue in Detroit. The postcard shows a colored drawing that depicts a bow view of the excursion steamship, SS PLEASURE, that is just arriving or departing from the dock. The SS TASHMOO is visible in the right background along with a building on the shore. Small printed text in the lower left corner reads "Pleasure Steamers, Detroit, Mich." Small printed text on the verso reads "Pleasure Steamers - The steamers, Pleasure and Tashmoo, loading with excursionists, bound respectively for Belle Isle and the St. Clair Flats. Thousands of people take in the popular trips these steamers afford. The scene is typical of the summer season in Detroit."
