Default ship photos from Cleveland.

I was going thru some old photographs that belonged to my Mom and Dad and came across these two ships. My Dad used to work down in the flats of Cleveland Ohio along the river and I suspect that these photos were taken then and if I were to date them it would be sometime around 1950's.

The first photo looks like a river boat. All I can make out is City of Cleveland - Detroit.

The other two photos I beleive are of the USS Gar   SS-206 which must have docked along the river and Dad snaped a couple photos.

Anyway I thought I would share them with you.

Thanks for sharing Don. It's nice to see pictures taken in a natural environment. You get to see come detail that you wouldn't normally see from staged/planned photos.
