EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling atmosphere of the Morse shipyard in January 1918. Featured on the front cover of the Morse Dry Dock Dial, a periodical published by the Morse Dry Dock and Repair Company, this image showcases the industrious workers who played a vital role in shaping America's maritime industry. In vivid color lithography, we see an array of ships towering over the shipyard as workers go about their tasks with precision and determination. The scene is filled with activity - from workers operating winches to lift heavy loads, to others using hooks to secure materials for transportation. Each worker plays a crucial part in ensuring that these mighty vessels are built or repaired efficiently. The image not only highlights the hard work and dedication of these laborers but also serves as a testament to America's booming shipping industry during this era. It offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in our nation's history when maritime transport was essential for trade and travel. Preserved at Hagley Museum & Library in Wilmington, Delaware, this photograph reminds us of how far we have come since then while honoring those who contributed their skills and sweat to shape our nation's maritime legacy.
