EDITORS COMMENTS
A Momentous Maritime Milestone: The Launch of R.M.S. Queen Mary in Clydebank, September 1934 This evocative photograph captures the historic moment as the R.M.S. Queen Mary, a Cunard White Star Liner, was launched from the slipway at John Brown & Company's shipyard in Clydebank, Scotland, on September 26, 1934. The launch marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter in maritime history, as the magnificent ocean liner embarked on her journey towards becoming a transatlantic icon. The image offers a unique perspective, as it was taken from the slipway itself, providing an intimate view of the vessel's impressive size and imposing presence. The Queen Mary, with her distinctive white hull and elegant lines, had spent the previous year-and-a-half undergoing extensive fitting-out work at the John Brown shipyard. The meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into her construction were evident in every aspect of her design. As the crowd cheered and the champagne bottle was shattered against her bow, the R.M.S. Queen Mary began her slow, majestic slide into the River Clyde. The launch marked the end of the building process and the beginning of her illustrious career as a passenger liner. Over the next decade, she would set numerous records for speed and luxury, cementing her place in maritime history as one of the most famous and beloved ocean liners of all time. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity, skill, and determination of the men and women who built and launched the R.M.S. Queen Mary. It stands as a reminder of a bygone era in shipping, when the launch of a new liner was a cause for national celebration and a source of pride for the entire maritime community.
