EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Minne-ha-ha Paddle Steamer, a historic sidewheeler vessel that graced the waters of Lake George in New York State, USA, during the late 19th century. Circa 1890, this image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when steam-powered boats ruled the lakes. The Minne-ha-ha, named after the mythical "Laughing Waters," was a popular attraction for tourists and locals alike. Its distinctive sidewheel design allowed for powerful propulsion, enabling the steamer to navigate the serene waters of Lake George with ease. This photograph, taken from a lantern slide, captures the Minne-ha-ha in all its glory. The paddlesteamer's intricate details are on full display, from the ornate ironwork adorning the smokestacks to the meticulously crafted wooden deck and cabins. The image also reveals the breathtaking natural beauty of Lake George, with its crystal-clear waters reflecting the vibrant colors of the autumn foliage. The Minne-ha-ha Paddle Steamer served on Lake George from 1857 to 1878, making it an essential part of the region's maritime history. This photograph, a testament to the vessel's grandeur and the era in which it sailed, remains an invaluable piece of American history. As we admire this image, we are reminded of the rich heritage of steam-powered boats and the role they played in shaping the tourism industry in the United States during the late 19th century.
