This vintage photograph captures the front of an Ellis Island landing card, issued to an immigrant arriving at the iconic immigration station in 1923. The artifact showcases the early identification process and documentation required for individuals seeking a new life in America. Handwritten text on the card reveals crucial information about the arrival, including the name of the ship - a Red Star Line vessel - that carried this hopeful passenger to New York City. The image offers a glimpse into history, shedding light on one aspect of the immigration experience during this era. It serves as a reminder of Ellis Island's significance as North America's primary immigration hub, where millions embarked on their journey towards freedom and opportunity. The carousel collection from which this print originates provides us with valuable insights into our collective past. By examining documents like these landing cards, we gain a deeper understanding of how immigrants navigated through complex processes upon their arrival. This particular artifact is not just an ordinary piece of paper; it represents dreams fulfilled and challenges overcome by those who sought refuge or prosperity in America. As we reflect upon our own heritage and acknowledge the contributions made by generations before us, let us remember that behind every document lies a personal story waiting to be discovered and shared with future generations.
