R. M. S. Queen Mary under construction, Clydebank, 1934

She was launched in September 1934 by Queen Mary

EDITORS COMMENTS
A Glimpse into Maritime History: The Resurrection of R.M.S. Queen Mary at Clydebank Shipyard, 1934 This evocative photograph captures the spirit of determination and innovation as R.M.S. Queen Mary, then known as 534, undergoes construction at John Brown's Shipyard in Clydebank, Scotland, in December 1934. The image serves as a testament to the resilience of the maritime industry and the indomitable human spirit. The Queen Mary, a colossal ocean liner, had faced an uncertain future due to the economic downturn of the early 1930s. Construction had been halted between 1931 and 1934 due to a lack of funds. However, the merger of Cunard and White Star Lines, coupled with a nine-and-a-half million pound government loan, breathed new life into the project. In this photograph, workers can be seen diligently toiling away, their faces etched with focus and determination. The massive structure of the ship looms in the background, a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The cranes and scaffolding that dominate the scene underscore the sheer scale of the undertaking. The launch of the Queen Mary, which took place in September 1934, was a monumental occasion. The event was graced by the presence of Queen Mary, for whom the ship was named, who performed the honors. The successful completion of the Queen Mary marked a significant milestone in maritime history, heralding a new era of luxury ocean travel. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of shipbuilding during a bygone era. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity, perseverance, and vision that drove the maritime industry forward, even in the face of adversity.
