Currier & Ive's lithograph print of the "Dreadnought" clipper ship. The print is titled; THE CELEBRATED CLIPPER SHIP "DREADNOUGHT", off Tusar Light on her Passage into Dock at Liverpool in 13 days 11 hours from New York, December 1854. The actual print measures 11 3/4" x 9" and is in a plain wood frame of 15 1/8" x 12 1/8". The Dreadnought was the most noted & famous clipper ship nicknamed "The Wild Boat of the Atlantic." She was built in 1853 by Currie & Townsend at 1413 tons and 210 feet. The Dreadnought made 60-70 passages across the Atlantic until she wrecked off Cape Horn in 1869, after 16 years of service. She was captained by Samuel Samuels. Currier & Ive's sold out 1906-07 and Max Williams bought the original stones used by Currier & Ive's in1907. Using those stones, he continued to make the same prints of the Dreadnought and 4 other prints. This caused the reprints by Max Williams to retain their high value.
