Hi,
this is the SS Bratya Miladinovi of 1907, named after the Miladinov brothers.
The Miladinov brothers (Bulgarian: Братя Миладинови, Bratya Miladinovi, Macedonian: Браќа Миладиновци, Brakja Miladinovci), Dimitar Miladinov (1810–1862) and Konstantin Miladinov (1830–1862), were poets, folklorists and activists of the Bulgarian national movement in the region of Macedonia. They are authors of an important collection called Bulgarian Folk Songs, though besides contributing to Bulgarian literature. Miladinov brothers' collection marked the beginning of the folklore studies in the period of the Bulgarian National Revival. Another famous poem by Konstantin Miladinov is Taga za Yug, that he wrote during his stay in Russia.
The ship had quite a history. She was originally scheduled to arrive into service in late 1904 or early 1905 as the second premier liner of the Bulgarian Big Four. A massive fire in September 1904 destroyed a significant percentage of the ship's internal fittings, sending her back into the shipyard. During her rebuilding, it was decided to enlarge the (as on the lead ship Anka Andonova) small library and cut down on the massive lounge, as well as add additional mini-suites along the lowest deck of the superstructure (as signified by the large side windows).
She was (just like her 3rd and 4th classmates) already obsolete when she entered service in 1907, as the extremely fast Lusitania and Mauretania were running the show. The redesigned interiors were welcome for that reason.
She was not used at all during WWI. After the war, she took on less wealthy passengers on its usual trans-atlantic line. Taken out of service in late 1929, and scrapped in Turkey along with her older sister.
