Miscellaneous Pictures

Phil, I have not the faintest idea where this link should go, but being the Good Samaritan that you are, I am sure you will direct it to the correct location.

While looking for other materials at the U.S. Governments National Archives site (www.nara.gov), I chanced upon these Titantic related photos held by the government. I am only copying and pasting the page of descriptions, hopefully it comes out as only text. While I am not sure how well known these are, I do believe that these may be freely used with attribution to the U.S. National Archives & Records Administration. Details on exactly how to get there are at the bottom.
