Royal Sovereign (1893)

A 12x10 negative. A fair quality slightly distant starboard near broadside view, taken from ahead of the beam, of the excursion paddle steamer Royal Sovereign (1893) under way in Gravesend Reach, River Thames. She is bound down laden with passengers, probably on one of her regular trips to Margate, and is making smoke. Tilbury is in the background.
