Description:
Black and white photo of MISS AMERICA II being christened by a woman, probably his wife Murlen Wood. Gar Wood can be seen in a white suit, standing on the deck of the boat holding a young child, probably Gar Wood Jr. A crowd of spectators are standing on the shore in the background, and a large waterfront home is also visible behind them. The picture was likely taken on the St. Clair River in Algonac, Michigan, where the boat was built.
