CAHC 2006.37.17Description
First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt prepares to christen the barge "Pine Tree." The 194-foot barge was the largest wooden vessel built in the nation since the 1920s, and was the first of many to be built to relieve the fuel transportation problem by carrying coal. Members of the Penobscot tribe performed ritual dances to give the ship good luck.Collection
