Scope and Content

This series consists of one folder: Prince Line Ltd. was founded in 1875 by James Knott, in Glasgow. The line operated between the Mediterranean and New York, transporting mainly, immigrants to the United States from Italy. After the 1906, and the US's legislative moves against continued Italian immigration, the line ceased its previous operations. It began offering pleasure cruises to various ports around the world. After WWI, Glasgow-based Furness-Withy purchased the line, and continued to operated Prince Line Ltd., under its own name, as a subsidiary until 1980, when Hong Kong-based CY Tung, purchased it.
