Electric bath in the SS Adriatic

One of three electric baths provided in the Turkish baths suite at the time of the liner's maiden voyage. Surprisingly, no attendant is to be seen in this image which was probably drawn before the room was in operation. We don't know how successful these baths were with passengers. No other liners seem to have had such baths installed.
