ERIN: 1864 - Color lithograph portrait card from 1870s

Product Description

National Line - Reaching far back in the dusty realms of steamship history, a 3.5" by 6" trade card with a color portrait of the ERIN of 1864. Although undated, the card is probably from the late 1870s.

National Line was founded in Britain in 1863 to carry freight and immigrants to the American South in anticipation of South's victory in the Civil War. When that proved a bad bet, National Line switched to New York as a terminus and upgraded accommodations. 

"The Salons and Staterooms are very spacious and cheerful," noted the company. "The Table will compare favorably with that of the best Hotels in England. Ladies Boudoir - also Piano, Library, Smoking, and Bath Rooms, etc. A Surgeon, Stewards, and Stewardess on every Steamer. Medicine and Attendance free."

Tragically, the ERIN suffered a fate all-too-common among early transatlantic ships. While sailing on a late December 1889 voyage from New York to Liverpool, the ship disappeared without a trace. Seventy-two souls were lost.

Very good condition.
