Since 2009, the Conservancy has gratefully received treasured donations of objects from across the country. Our archival and curatorial collections include art, advertisements, furniture, diaries, family photos and home videos, among many other objects. We are honored to have built an archive of visual materials related to passengers and crew who traveled in, helped build, and/or served aboard our nation’s flagship, the SS United States.
You can play an important role in helping us preserve the history of the Big U! Were you a passenger, crew member, or have a family connection with the SS United States? If you have materials you are interested in donating, please reach out to us at info@ssusc.org.
Examples of items we are currently accepting:
- Menus
- Passenger Lists
- Letters, notes, postcards, diaries
- Photographs
- Pamphlets, maps, plans
- Tickets, receipts, paperwork
We are not currently accepting large objects or models.
