Circa 1920's Photo Album

Photos taken by guests onboard the

Henry Ford II

From the Marc Vander Meulen Collection

~CIRCA 1920's~

This historic photo album documents a trip taken by passengers on the Henry Ford II in the 1920's.  We see the places they sailed; Detroit, the Soo Locks, and Duluth. It is unknown who any of these people are but one thing is very evident from this collection of photographs, the passengers and crew certainly enjoyed themselves.

(If anyone has any knowledge of who any of the people in these pictures are, please let us know and the information will be updated.)
