Guess What!!! -- Looking somewhat like a huge stage set piece as a background for the song "I'm Looking Over a Four-Leafed Clover" is a structure which is in actual fact one of the four propellors, each weighing 30 tons, of the world's largest liner "Queen Elizabeth" (83,000-tons). The ship is now in dry dock at Southampton undergoing a complete re-fit, a gigantic task which will take an army of 2,000 men working night and day, seven weeks to complete. Here workmen are seen polishing the starboard inner propeller, during the "Spring-cleaning" of the liner, with the starboard outer propeller just showing beyond (right). January 20, 1954. (Photo by Fox Photos).
