Queen Mary Ocean Liner, 6 months of activity
Six months of ceaseless activity. The Queen Mary, then known as Hull Number 534, had been halted between 1931 and 1934 due to the Great Depression of the 1930s, but the merger of Cunard and White Star Line and a nine-and-a-half million pound government loan saved the vessel. Six months from April to September, 1934 were months of tremendous activity. An army of riveters, platers, caulkers and artisans of all kinds were at work completing the 40, 000 ton hull of the still unnamed liner in readiness for the lauching by Queen Mary. Date: 1934
