SS United States
United States Lines
1952
Built in 1952 for the United States Lines, SS United States is the largest ocean liner ever built entirely in the US. On her maiden voyage, she set the record for the fastest transatlantic crossing, making the voyage from New York Harbor to the United Kingdom in 3 days, 10 hours, and 40 minutes, and returning in 3 days, 10 hours, and 12 minutes. Her westbound crossing record is still unbroken. The SSUS carried celebrity passengers including Coco Chanel, Cary Grant, Marilyn Monroe, and John Wayne, not to mention four US Presidents.
The clubby, Mid-Century Modern fittings and stylings, designed by ocean liner interior mavens Dorothy Marckwald and Anne Urquhart, were auctioned off in 1984.
