title: SS Arizona

subject: Arizona (Steamship)

description: A sepia-toned photograph of the SS Arizona after its collision with an iceberg. The photograph shows the destroyed bow of the steamship with several men standing in the damaged area. This photo was apparently owned by James B. Colgate - perhaps he was a passenger on that voyage? The caption in his writing reads, "View of the bow of the SS Arizona (Guion Line) as she appeared in St. John's Newfoundland after colliding with an iceberg at 9 o'clock, November 7th, 1879."
