22-152 Schooner “Atlantic” Built 1903

The Atlantic was built in 1903 by Townsend and Downey shipyard, and designed by William Gardner, for Wilson Marshall. The three-masted schooner was skippered by Charlie Barr and it set the record for fastest transatlantic passage by a monohull in the 1905 Kaiser’s Cup race. The record remained unbroken for nearly 100 years. Offered here is a reproduction from the original newswire photograph—an archival pigment print float mounted in a wood frame with white trim and glass glazing. 12×16 inches framed.
