Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!
Here's what I am looking for. The Red Star Line discounted its
second-cabin steamship fares by $10 for the passage from New York
City to Antwerp, Belgium during the summer of 1897. The Red Star
line operated 4 steamships between New York and Antwerp that summer:
The Westernland, The Noorland, The Berlin, and The Friesland.
Does anyone know where I can find the actual fare? Also, I need to
know what the price of a 2nd cabin roundtrip ticket, NY-Antwerp-NY,
on these Red Line passenger ships of 1897 was.
I have searched the papers using ProQuest but no fare information
arises from the ads I find about the Red Star Line. Is there a list
of fares from this line that might exist somewhere else?
Thanks In advance!
Mercedes
