William H. Donner as well. The most of the "Cleveland" scenes of the film were shot in and around Milwaukee and the scene where the long shore-men are handling lines or chains and talking about how bad or how not so bad the Indians are the Donner is visible in the background. This is when she was at the Miller Compressing dock before heading to her current location.

After catching the Algosteel' in the canal today I was looking up some additional info besides what I have read on this wonderful site. Upon looking around I read that as the Algogulf she was in the opening scene of the baseball comedy "Major League". Sure enough she's under the Whiskey Huletts, but a American Steamship also makes an appearance. Anyone know the vessel?

Thanks
