About this campaign
These ultimate heavyweight sweatshirts, perfect for fall weather, feature a new design by talented graphic artist Greg Shutters (http://gregshutters.com/) commemorating the SS United States.
A 55-day "Grand Pacific Cruise" was planned in 1970 that would have visited ports including New Zealand, Australia, Japan and Hong Kong. Sadly, it was cancelled when the ship was withdrawn from service in 1969. However, we are offering a fabulous sweatshirt commemorating the voyage. We are also offering another cruising opportunity in May 2018. We invite you to support the Conservancy by joining us on a trip aboard the Celebrity Summit to Bermuda.
In service from 1952 through 1969, the luxury ocean liner, the SS United States, set a new speed record for a transatlantic crossing on her maiden voyage – a record that remains unbroken to this day. America's Flagship is an irreplaceable piece of history with enduring global significance as a symbol of the nation's historical accomplishments and technological innovation.

When something unique and as magnificent as SS United States is created it needs to be appreciated and preserved.
I can see the ship whenever I cross the Walt Whitman bridge into Philly and would love to see her stay in the area, and hopefully be used again some day for commercial purposes.
Saving the "Big U" is very important to me. Plus, it's a really cool sweatshirt!! A conversation starter to be sure.
We crossed the Atlantic on the United States: John, June 1958, New York to LeHavre, 11 years old; Jane, July 1964, LeHavre to New York, 16 years old. A great experience! Met in high school 1964 in Florida, married May 20, 1970.
I love the history of this ship. So many ships I have tried to help and now they are gone. (SS Catalina) sad... I want to all I can and I am truly sorry I can't send big money to help. How I would love to do just THAT>>>
