Ellis Island Passenger Lists - 1951
A Young Couple Watches the Waves Created by the SS Ile de France Propellers. Deck Plan and Cabin Class Travel Brochure, February 1951. GGA Image ID # 205c4cf276
Passenger lists for 1951 represent the souvenir list provided to the passengers of each cabin class (and other classes). Many of these souvenir passenger lists have disappeared over the years. Our collection primarily covers North American and European ports and ports in Australia and South Africa.
Our collection contains samples of passenger lists produced and printed by the steamship lines. They are often used to illustrate family history books for immigrants from this period in time.
Coveted by collectors and genealogists, souvenir passenger lists often offered beautiful graphical covers and information not found in official manifests because they focused on the journey rather than the destination.
