I believe that this unidentified passenger steamship could possibly be from the New England area or the Great Lakes. I have already ruled out this vessel as being the S.S. Boston of the Eastern steamship lines, as well as the S.S. North American. The time frame of the photograph is from 1907-1914. Thank you for any leads in identifying this vessel.

1I tried to find a match to the funnel and house flag in research.mysticseaport.org/item/l011061/l011061-c008, without much luck. Number 47 seemed closest, but not really plausible.– kimchi loverJun 19, 2022 at 19:12

2According to Wikipedia, The S.S Harvard had a sister ship the S.S Yale which was was built by the Delaware River Iron Shipbuilding and Engine Works in 1906, for service between New York and Boston. This would make sense because the group of photos this came from are of vessels from the Boston and Cape Cod area. Thank you very much for your detective work. I very much appreciate it. I’m not sure how you figured it out though. I had been searching for a few weeks now. Jun 20, 2022 at 1:23
