Two ocean liners are in port – sister ships the MS Saturnia (left) and MS Vulcania (right), which, with smoke billowing and a tug assisting, is about to leave port. MS Saturnia was an Italian ocean liner launched in 1925. She was sister ship MS Vulcania, launched the next year. Saturnia served into World War II for Italy and upon the Italian armistice was delivered to the US War Shipping Administration (WSA) in 1943. The ship was converted into a troop ship and then a hospital ship, the USAHS ‘Frances Y Slanger'. In 1946 Saturnia was returned to the Italian government for commercial service, lasting until 1965 when she was scrapped. The MS Vulcania was built by Cantiere Navale Triestino, Monfalcone, northern Italy, in 1926 for the Italian company, the Cosulich Line. She sailed from Trieste on her maiden voyage to Patras, Naples and New York City that December. She continued to be mainly used on the transatlantic service. In 1965 the ship was sold to the Sicula Oceanica SpA/Grimaldi SIOSA Line, renamed ‘Caribia' and then ran between Europe and the Caribbean, before being put into Mediterranean cruise service. She was to be scrapped in 1974. However, she sank at sea before reaching the scrappers. This image is from a photograph in an old album of shipping memorabilia. It will look soft if used at too large a size – a vintage 1930s photograph
