EDITORS COMMENTS
"This promotional image showcases the RMS Olympic and RMS Titanic, two iconic ocean liners of the White Star Line, docked side by side in a serene harbor during the early 1910s. The photograph, a rare find, is accompanied by a log card commemorating the eastbound maiden voyage of the RMS Olympic, departing from New York for Southampton on 28 June 1911. This historic event marked the beginning of the Olympic's passenger service between North America and Europe, and it was captained by the renowned mariner, E.J. Smith. The image exudes an air of luxury and elegance, as the two ships, adorned with their distinctive white stars, gleam in the sunlight. The Olympic, slightly smaller than its sister ship Titanic, was the first of the three Olympic-class ocean liners built by Harland and Wolff in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The Titanic, which would tragically sink on its maiden voyage in April 1912, casts a long shadow over the history of these magnificent vessels. This pair of abstract, yet evocative, images offers a glimpse into the golden age of ocean travel, a time when crossing the Atlantic was an adventure, and the journey itself was as much a part of the experience as the destination. The log card, with its meticulous details, adds an intriguing layer of history to this photograph, making it a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts of maritime history." Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd. is proud to present this rare and intriguing promotional image and log card, a testament to the grandeur and allure of ocean travel during the early 20th century.
