Photograph
Black-and-white photo of the ocean liner RMS Queen Mary arriving in New York on her maiden voyage, steaming north on the Hudson River, no date, [1936].
The photo was taken from the west side of the Hudson, probably in Hoboken by Charlie Kosbab.
The liner would have been near 23rd Street in Manhattan. The Empire State Building is at the left. A tug is near midship and several other craft are in the water nearby including two ferryboats.
