SS Badger: smokestacks through the years

Unread post by GP30M4216 »

With the SS Badger unfortunately not sailing for the rest of this season, the company has been posting a lot of history articles and other information on their website. They just did an article about all of the different smokestack logos the Badger has worn over the past 70 years, in detail, with some great photos at the end. I’m not sure Ive ever seen such a good closeup of the Chessie cat on a stack.

You can still see the Chessie Cat bleeding through on the Spartan's stack.
