Eldridge, William M., Inc.
Administrative/Biographical History
Because of the lack of provenance information, little can be said about the collection. William M. Eldridge was a naval architect with a practice on Madison Avenue,
NYC, at least by 1930. Sometime in the next few years he took Holbrook B. Smith as
an associate. Smith apparently left the firm in 1939 and went into business for himself in
Red Bank, NJ. From the nature of the catalogs, it would appear that the firm was engaged primarily in yacht design. Whether the catalogs were in the possession of Eldridge or Smith after 1939 is not clear. No references to the firm have been found elsewhere.
