SS LIBERTE ocean liner model
After WW II, the Blue
Riband winner SS Europa of Germany was transferred to
France. She was given $19 million refit and
then renamed Liberte. The SS Liberte made her maiden voyage to New
York in 1950. She became the flagship for CGT
French Line as a replacement for the legendary SS
Normandie that had been lost during the Second World
War.
SS Liberte served for 11 years as the
pride of France and finally was retired in 1961 after
serving two great nations.
SS
Liberté was featured prominently in the Jane Russell
film The French Line. The Liberté also made an
appearance in the 1954 classic film Sabrina, starring
Audrey Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart, in the final scenes
of the film.
