UNIVERSE CAMPUS


Another former American Export Lines classic liner, the UNIVERSE CAMPUS ex ATLANTIC, photographed here on her final visit to Lisbon in the summer of 1975.
When purchased by AEL and refited back in 1960 she had the largest swimming pool of any passenger ship in the world, and I must say I do remember seeing that pool in 1963 while the ship was docked in Funchal, Madeira.
Like the OCEANIC INDEPENDENCE, the former ATLANTIC shows her Orient Overseas livery in the photograph.
