Scope and Contents
Locations served, line names, and vessels in fleet have been noted when available to aid in those researching by geographical and name parameters, although these details should not be considered complete and exhaustive as other locations and routes may have also been served. None of the supplemental information should be considered exhaustive as the materials represent only a sampling of operations records and advertising produced by the companies listed.
Materials may include promotional and marketing circulars, bills of lading, receipts for services, time tables and schedules, price lists, correspondence, tickets, baggage tags, company history, menus, passenger lists, travel and tour guides, etcetera. Some effort has been made to identify certain items when present, such as passenger lists.
