A photograph of the wreck of the MORRO CASTLE off Asbury Park, NJ, printed on an embossed edge card. In the foreground are people on or near the breakwater to see the wreck. The ship is still visibly smoking or steaming, so this was likely taken either the day of the disaster, September 8, 1934, or the day after.
