    3. Ellis Island's ships gallery has a Zeeland built in 1901, a Zeelandia built in 1910, and a Zeelandic built in 1911 (but no image of the last one). Norway-Heritage has a Zeeland launched in 1865 (they don't specify original name):http://norwayheritage.com/p_ships.asp?Ship=Zeeland&Submit=Submit 1878 sold to Red Star Line, named Zeeland 1889 sold, renamed Electrique  1892 sold, renamed Lord Spencer 1895 went missing on voyage from San Francisco - New York No photos of this Zeeland, though, only the later Zeeland (2). There are other places to look, like Mystic Seaport, galleries specializing in maritime paintings or models, NY Public Library, South Street Seaport, etc. One of the latter may have images of handbills or posters in their collection that illustrate your ship.  Unfortunately, the Peabody Essex Museum's "Image Vault" is offline while they reorganize it and re-write their use policies (tighter restrictions with higher fees?).  Happy hunting! --- On Tue, 12/29/09, David Stroebel <[email protected]> wrote: ...know where a photograph exists of the SS Zeeland...
