The postcard captures the classic white steamship with its distinctive black smokestack marked by a red band, set against a serene waterfront backdrop. The image highlights the vessel's operation on the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay, serving routes between Washington, D.C., Old Point Comfort, and Norfolk, Virginia, with additional service to Baltimore and nearby points.Published by Charles D. Holland of Richmond, Virginia, this postcard is a standard size (5.5 x 3.5 inches) printed in genuine natural color by Dexter Press, Inc. The reverse includes a clear postmark from Baltimore, Maryland, dated October 7, 1957, and a handwritten message referencing the SS City of Norfolk, adding to its collectible maritime and historical appeal. This postcard is an excellent piece for collectors interested in mid-20th century American steamship history and Chesapeake Bay transportation.
