Description

The S.S. Christopher Columbus

Sprague painting

The S.S. Christopher Columbus was a whaleback excursion liner designed by Alexander McDougall and built in 1892-1893 in Superior, Wisconsin by American Steel Barge Company for service to ferry passengers to and from the World's Columbian Exposition, and later placed in general and excursion service to various ports around the Great Lakes.

This advertisement is of an unknown date. It is probably from the 1920s but cannot be dated more accurately than that. It is not known what newspaper it came from, or whether the newspaper renewed its copyright. It is likely to be from a Chicago paper though.

For that reason this advertisement cannot be definitively stated to be pre 1923 and thus eligible for {{PD-old}} It is intended for use ONLY in the SS Christopher Columbus article to illustrate her use as an excursion vessel.
