EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph print presents an original probate and legal document from the estate of Ernest Portage Tomlin, a third-class passenger and unfortunate victim of the RMS Titanic tragedy. The date of this significant historical artifact is July 1912. The document, meticulously handwritten, relates to the probate and administration of Tomlin's estate following his untimely demise on the ill-fated ocean liner. The RMS Titanic, a White Star Line vessel and the largest ship of her time, was a marvel of transportation and luxury. The grandeur and promise of a new beginning for many passengers, including Tomlin, were shattered on the night of April 14, 1912, when the ship struck an iceberg and sank in the North Atlantic Ocean. This poignant document, preserved and now available as a print, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the human stories that unfolded during this pivotal moment in maritime history. The executor of Tomlin's estate is named in the document, adding another layer of intrigue and personal detail to the narrative. The 1910s, a decade marked by significant social and technological changes, saw the RMS Titanic as a symbol of progress and ambition. The tragic events that unfolded on that fateful night serve as a reminder of the fragility of life and the enduring power of history to captivate and inspire us. This print, sourced from Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd., is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on maritime history, social history, or the RMS Titanic. It is not to be used for commercial purposes.
