INMAN LINE

Liverpool, Philadelphia, and New York Steamship Company

(British)

The Inman Line was one of the three largest 19th-century British passenger shipping companies on the North Atlantic, along with the White Star Line and Cunard Line. Founded in 1850, the Inman Line was absorbed into the American Line in 1893. The firm's formal name for much of its history was the Liverpool, Philadelphia, and New York Steamship Company. Still, it was also variously known as the Liverpool and Philadelphia Steamship Company, as Inman Steamship Company, Limited, and, in the last few years before absorption, as the Inman and International Steamship Company.
