This passenger list was created in Liverpool, England in 1905. It is found in the Miami University Walter Havighurst Special Collections. 12.5 x 18.5 cm.
This list was important to passengers because it was a souvenir and a guide to their voyage. On the back of the booklet, there are policies and a meal schedule for passengers to use. This particular voyage was taken on the steamship “Noordland” which was scrapped only three years after this list was made.
The importance of this object relates directly to the uniqueness of this particular printed copy of the list. Inside the booklet, handwritten notes document the people that this passenger met and learned about on the trip. It creates a personal touch that makes it unique from other copies of the same artifact.
