I had always assumed that it was just a boat that someone built for the movie company as the story was fiction so there wasn't, I believed, an "original" African Queen" In passenger and freight service from 1912 to 1968, if that is original enough. British built of riveted steel, by the way. Casady But was it the boat in the movie, or was the movie boat a copy? Or a whole different boat? Yes! That was the original boat. However, many of the shots were special effects - a mockup, a water tank, models, etc. But for the shots of an actual boat, that was it. Or so they claimed. |
