Queen Mary
This was uploaded for a discussion in my group Streamline Moderne. www.flickr.com/groups/streamlinemoderne/ There are more photos and posters of Streamlined Ocean Liners in the group.
I've uploaded this to show how the ship has some Streamline features but is not as extreme as the Normandie.
The Queen Mary does not feature as many streamline features. The outriggers on the bridge are flat and face the wind. In the Normandie - they sweep back smoothly.
The stacks leaning back is the most Streamline aspect of the Queen Mary
You can see many details along the sides that might catch the wind, where the Normandy tried to minimize all protrusions to create a smooth surfaces stretching from the bridge to the stern.
