The "Flagship of the Iowa Navy" was a staple of West Lake Okoboji for more than half a century. Built in 1884 by the Dubuque Boat and Boiler Co, the Queen was originally launched on Spirit Lake by the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern Railway. Railroads used steamer boats like the Queen to transport people from the rail terminal. At the time, there were few roads in the area, so it was easier to move people over the water. For more than 15 years, the Queen called Spirit Lake home. However, a drought in 1901 caused the water level on Spirit Lake to drop to a level that the Queen could not be used. The railroad company decided to sell the Queen, and it was moved to West Lake Okoboji. The Queen continued to operate, transporting people from different points around the lake. Moved to Adventureland in Iowa in the 1970s. Photo Measures 3.25 x 5.75 Inches. In Very Good Condition: Light Corner Crease & Soiling. Penciling on back including photographer's name & date. Please see photos for further details Thanks for Looking and Good Luck BiddingSW3JC
