Black and white photo of the Ford Motor Company Marine Division freighter ERNEST R. BREECH in the Soo Locks' MacArthur Lock, as taken from the shore off of its starboard bow. Workers stand by bollards to which the freighter is tied along the shore. Another freighter heads west through the Poe Lock. A third freighter--presumably the PAUL H. CARNAHAN is in the background beneath the Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge. A handwritten note is on the verso:
