Negative, Glass-plate

Monochromatic glass-plate negative from the studio of Louis James Pesha depicting the bow and starboard side of the Atlas Steamship Company freighter GRIFFIN, under steam. The smoke stack is decorated with a large "H." A man in a hat stands near the bow of the ship. Several figures are gathered at the stern of the ship where a small boat with two people inside is being towed. Two figures are on deck near the hatch just before the aft cabin. A House on a tree-lined shoreline is visible in the background. The image is captioned with the year, "1916."
