Stereoview of the American Steamboat Company steamboat NEW YORK at Lewiston before the Civil War.
Notes
The NEW YORK was moved off the lakes in 1861 and was used for transport on the Atlantic coast during the American Civil War. The label is in error simply identifying her as the "York" as "New York" is clearly visible on both her paddlebox and below the pilot house.
