EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to approximately 1883, showcases the impressive sight of the steamship Penobscot skillfully navigating its way between Boston, Bangor, and Mount Desert. The Penobscot was one of several steamers that formed a striking line against the backdrop of the clear, tranquil waters. The Penobscot, with its tall smokestacks and elegant design, stands out proudly amidst the other vessels, reflecting the advanced technology and engineering prowess of the era. The boats in the background, some smaller and others similar in size to the Penobscot, add to the overall sense of grandeur and movement on the water. Boston, Bangor, and Mount Desert, three distinct and picturesque locations, are connected by this magnificent fleet, showcasing the importance of maritime transportation during this time. The Penobscot Bay, with its breathtaking scenery and abundant natural resources, was a popular destination for travelers and vacationers, making the steamship a vital link between these communities. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when steamships ruled the waters and the journey between cities was an adventure in and of itself. The Penobscot, with its regal presence, leads the way, symbolizing the spirit of exploration and discovery that defined the late 19th century.
