Ships

Our collection of  photographs of P&O and subsidiary company ships dates right back to the Iron Screw Steamers of the 1860s. In addition to formal ship portraits, the collection includes photographs of ships in the fleet: under construction, launching, on sea trials, interiors, in service, in port and even the breakers yard. Browse a selection here.
