RPPC - RMS LUSITANIA Mr Hand proprietor of the Hand Hotel at Llangollen got photographer J Percy Clarke to superimpose a picture of Lusitania on a photo of his hotel which appeared to show the ship sailing up the canal with a title ‘Record voyage of the Lusitania’. I have seen a similar card of Titanic sinking in an Austrian Lake.

I have been collecting White Star and Cunard 3 & 4 funnel liners for more than 25 years sadly neither of my Sons have any interest in either my stamp or postcard collections so I am putting my toe in the water to assess the interest. Providing these are taken up I have Mauretania, Lusitania and Olympic as well as Liverpool, Southampton, Floating Dry Dock, Suevic as well as many large Bookpost and related hardware.
