Rare pre-sinking Titanic/Olympic postcard, created to celebrate the “Largest and Finest Steamers in the World ~ Olympic & Titanic”
Postmarked post-sinking June 22, 1912. With one cent stamp. As you can see, message from back of postcard continues on the front.
There are many reissues of this postcard image out there….. But this is an original pre-sinking postcard describing the sister ships Olympic & Titanic as “the largest and finest steamers in the world,” posted two months after the Titanic disaster on her maiden voyage. Titanic postcards manufactured after the disaster all memorialize the ship in some way.
