Magnolia Springs Alabama Boat Josephine 1909 Cyanotype Real Photo Postcard
This postcard features The Steirwaca, likely a private motor launch, navigating a calm waterway. The vessel's design, with its enclosed cabin and open deck space, is characteristic of early 20th-century recreational or utility boats, which gained popularity with the advent of reliable gasoline engines. Such craft were essential for leisure, transportation, and light commerce on inland rivers, lakes, and coastal waters during this period.
