This vintage postcard features the majestic S.S. Constitution of the American Export Lines, captured in a vibrant color illustration as it cruises through the open sea. The artwork beautifully highlights the ship's distinctive dual funnels with their patriotic red, white, and blue bands, set against a serene sky and deep blue water. The printing technique gives it a textured, linen-like appearance characteristic of mid-century maritime collectibles, making it a wonderful piece for any nautical enthusiast.The reverse side provides fascinating historical specifications, noting that the S.S. Constitution and its sister ship, the S.S. Independence, were the first completely air-conditioned transatlantic liners. These vessels represented the pinnacle of modern American living at sea during the 1950s, servicing regular routes between New York and glamorous Mediterranean ports such as Algeciras, Cannes, Genoa, and Naples. This card is a Colorgraph made by Harry H. Baumann and serves as a significant piece of mid-century transportation history.
