State Line Steamship Ocean Travel Company: This Company was formed for the purpose of establishing a line of steamers for the conveyance of goods and passengers between the ports of Glasgow and New York, and also between Liverpool and New Orleans, calling at such ports as may be found most advantageous.The company ordered six vessels to be built. The Pennsylvania, Virginia and Georgia of 2,400 tons each for the Glasgow - New York trade; and the Louisiana, Minnesota, and Alabama of 1,900 tons, 1,900 tons, and 2,400 tons respectively for the Liverpool - New Orleans trade. The vessels were expected to be completed between July 1872 and early 1873.The company existed from 1872 to 1891 when they were purchased by the All Line for £72,000. The S.S. State of Pennsylvania and the S.S. State of Alabama were sold by the Allan Line in 1891. NOTE - re: "Castle Garden" ... From Wikipedia:Castle Clinton or Fort Clinton, once known as Castle Garden, is a circular sandstone fort now located in Battery Park at the southern tip of Manhattan Island, New York City, in the United States. It is perhaps best remembered as America's first immigration station (predating Ellis Island), where more than 8 million people arrived in the U.S. from 1855 to 1890. Over its active life, it has also functioned as a beer garden, exhibition hall, theater, public aquarium, and finally today as a national monument. 130+ Years Old - Antique 19th Century Card: Recreation and Ship -related Business Advertising Card + Over 1,000+ more fabulous antique & vintage cards are currently listed at the Dave Cheadle Card Store.
