1929 Press Photo Hero Sea Captain George Fried Has Parade in Manhattan New York

Description: 1929 Vintage Press Photo by WIDE WORLD PHOTOS. New York. New York's thousands paid tribute to Captain Fried and the heroes of the Florida Rescue today when they parade from the Battery up Broadway to City Hall, amid a storm of ticker tape, and were formally welcomed by Mayor Walker. Photo shows the parade moving up Broadway with the automobile bearing Captain Fried, Chief Officer Manning and Police Commissioner Whalen in the van. George Fried, a sea captain with service in both the US Navy and Merchant Marine, is best remembered for his valiant rescue of the crews of the British steamship Antinoe in 1926 while captaining the luxury liner SS President Roosevelt and three years later the Italian freighter Florida while in command of the luxury liner USS America. Both of the ships he captained during the rescues were owned by the large United States Lines. Fried became familiar to thousands of Americans when his syndicated column "My Thirty Years at Sea", which chronicled his life and ocean adventures, was featured in major newspapers beginning in 1929. Photo is Dated: January 28, 1929. THIS IS AN AUTHENTIC PHOTO, NOT A COPY OR SCANS. Photo Measures Approximately: 7.75 x 9.5 Inches. THERE ARE FEW MINOR CREASE MARKINGS. Part Number: AAA54690 ALL items are more than likely going to have condition wear (small creases, corner wear, etc...) due to age and touching.
