Quint Fleet collection, 1943.

A brochure celebrating the christening of the "Quint Fleet," five cargo ships built by Walter Butler Shipbuilders of Superior, Wis. for the war effort in 1943. The ships were christened by the Dionne quintuplets, and the collection also includes a piano-vocal score for the song, "A ship for Annette and a ship for Marie (and a ship for Yvonne, and Cecile and Emelie)" by John B. Chapple, Ashland, Wis., presumably used during the ceremony.
