Munson Steamship Lines: A 22" by 28" fold-out tissue deck plan. Munson had the MUNARGO built especially for New York to Nassau service. On this undated deck plan (but probably from the early to mid-1920s), First Class fills up much of 4 decks. The emphasis seems to have been on passenger capacity rather than space. The ship held 172 in First and the public rooms consisted of a smallish Smoking Room with an attached Veranda, a Library and Writing Room squeezed in between cabins, hallways labeled social rooms, and a Dining Saloon with a balcony that held the Lounge on one side and the Music Room on the other. The original owner of the plan evidentially sailed in Cabin D on Main Deck as that room is circled on the plan. The 56 denizens of Second Class occupied 3 decks in a sliver of the stern. On Upper Promenade Deck they got a little Smoking Room and then a Lounge and Music Room squeezed in around a light well that dropped down two deck to the Dining Saloon. The tight hallway around the light well on Lower Promenade Deck is label "Social Hall". Occupants of the cabins on the After Main Deck surrounding the dining area would have had to ask diners to move their chairs to so they could exit their quarters. Other than a collision or two the MURANGO sailed successfully for Munson up until the company's bankruptcy in 1938. She then moved over the United Fruit Company where she sailed under the same name until WW2. After the war she was laid up in Oregon, far from her old tropical stomping grounds. The ship was broken up in 1957. This plan is in good condition with some wrinkling to the tissue and a little seam separation at the folds to detract.
