EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment when the Queen Mary Ocean Liner, a symbol of luxury and elegance, embarked on her maiden voyage down the River Clyde in March 1936. The image shows the magnificent ship, adorned with the Union Jack and the Cunard Line flag, making its way from Clydebank, where its interior was fitted out, towards Greenock, Inverclyde, Scotland. The journey was described as "the most dangerous voyage" the Queen Mary was ever likely to have to make. The vessel, which was the largest and most expensive ocean liner ever built at the time, had to navigate the winding and narrow waters of the River Clyde, which were notoriously treacherous due to their shallow depths and strong currents. The Queen Mary was escorted by a flotilla of tugs, including the Sir Edgar Britten, which can be seen in the foreground of the photograph. The bridge of the Sir Edgar Britten is visible in the top right corner of the image, with its crew carefully guiding the Queen Mary through the hazardous waters. The double-page spread diagram below provides a detailed map of the Queen Mary's route from Clydebank to Greenock, highlighting the narrowest points of the river and the locations of key landmarks. The successful completion of this voyage marked a significant milestone in the history of ocean travel and demonstrated the remarkable engineering and navigational skills of those involved. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of adventure and innovation that characterized the 1930s, a decade marked by significant advancements in transport and travel. The Queen Mary went on to become a legendary ocean liner, serving as a symbol of luxury and glamour for generations of passengers.
