This series consists of one folder: The Union Steamship Co. was founded in 1875 in Dunedin New Zealand by James Mills, to operate worldwide, exporting freight from New Zealand. The line offered passenger accommodations aboard several of its vessels, and operated until 2000. Mark Twain famously criticized the line in his 1897 book, "Following the Equator", after having been aboard a Union Steamship Co. cruise.
