Description: Two steamships in the large sectional floating dry dock of the Morse Dry Dock and Repair Company of Brooklyn, New York, circa late 1919-early 1920. At the time this photo was taken, the Morse dock was the largest floating dock in the world, capable of lifting a 725-foot long, 30,000 gross ton steamship, or two smaller ships simultaneously. The second ship is difficult to see due to the poor quality of the image.
