    Description

    These three posters feature the Fruit Cargo ship
    SS Fra Berlanga
    and the two Matson liners
    Argentina
    and
    Michelangelo
    .  The first ship is the
    SS Fra Berlanga
    which was one of the Great White Fleet of the United Fruit Company.  I believe the ship was build around 1945 and was literally the "Banana Boat" that brought that fruit to North America.  There is a ship with the same name that might be the this ship that brought immigrants from Europe to Argentina shortly after WWII.  The two Matson ocean liners are the
    Argentina
    (seen here off of Manhattan) and the
    Michelangelo
    seen here at dock (probably also in New York) with late 1950's cars whizzing by.  The
    Fra Berlanga
    poster is 24" x 20".  It is in good condition except for a chip out of the left top corner and one light fold in the top margin.  I think this print dates to the 1950's.  It is signed within the print C.G.EVERS.  The other two Matson prints are both signed A Benet. The
    Argentina
    poster is 18" x 15".  It is in very good condition.  The
    Michelangelo
    poster is 22.5" x 15.25".  It is in good condition a light margin fold and two small corner folds.
