    Description

    This is a 1966, one-of-a-kind engine room logbook from "The S.S. United States Liner". One can see Captain Alexanderson's initials in photo #6. All the information covers both voyages #318 (Eastbound & Westbound), from April 18th
    . - May 2nd.,1966
    . "The S.S. United States Liner" sailed exactly (400) voyages, which means exactly (800) crossings, (Eastbound & Westbound) between
    June 1952 - November 1969. This one-of-a-kind logbook measures 11" x 17", and is approximately 15 pages in length. It is full of hand written
    information like speed, boiler pressure, ports-of-call, arrivals, departures, engine room mishaps, and other nautical information; all hand written by the chief engineer. After all these years, the condition is excellent. This logbook is sealed in plastic, and has been put away in my SSUS collection for the past 30 years. I only have a few of these left for sale. This item was purchased at the 1984 SSUS at auction in Norfolk, Virginia.
