Black and white photo of two men working from a lifeboat on the stem and anchor of the Republic Steel Corporation freighter, PETER ROBERTSON in Duluth, Minnesota. A tarp and several buckets are in the lifeboat. A line extends from the lifeboat off the lower left corner of the frame, and several lines extending from the ROBERTSON, are visible in the upper right corner. A portion of the shore is in view in the background. The photo has beveled edges, and rectangular holes punched in the left border to be bound into a photo album with a plastic binding comb. "'Gung Ho,' from Ashtabula, Ohio, during fit-out, April, 1959, on front-end of Str. 'Peter Robertson,' at Duluth Minn." is handwritten on the verso.
