About this campaign
The SS United States Conservancy is celebrating the 70th anniversary of the maiden voyage of America’s Flagship with this limited-edition t-shirt.
When she set sail from New York on July 3, 1952, the SS United States was the epitome of mid-century modern design, American innovation, and technological supremacy. Steaming to Europe with notable Americans including Margaret Truman and Bob Hope aboard, she smashed the transatlantic speed record in both directions and captured the Blue Riband – a record she still holds today.
Seventy years later, thanks to the dedicated stewardship of the SS United States Conservancy, she remains afloat, and continues to be a symbol of American pride and a proud icon of our collective strength, our can-do spirit, and the values that unite us.
The SS United States Conservancy, a national non-profit organization, is committed to saving America’s Flagship, the SS United States. The Conservancy has also developed an extraordinary collection of art, artifacts and historical documents related to America’s Flagship, to be displayed in a future ship-board museum. Your support will enable us to continue working to save the ship as well as building and curating our collections and developing exciting new digital exhibitions.

Whenever I visit New Jersey I drive across the bridge to Philly and see the big ship. I’ve recently become fascinated with ocean liners and want to do everything I can to restore the SSUS!!
The United States has always thought of itself as a great nation. One of the reasons that is so is the magnificence of things like the Big U. It would be a horrendous crime to let it go. We need to keep her and restore her to her greatness.
Have always been interested in the SS United States.
