EDITORS COMMENTS
"This exquisite on board letter card, dated 27 February 1912, bears the distinctive White Star Line logo - a red ensign with the silhouette of a ship against a five-pointed star. Six weeks before the tragic sinking of RMS Titanic, the world's largest and finest ocean liner, this letter card was sent from the deck of her sister ship, RMS Olympic. The elegant vessel, a marvel of modern transportation and luxury travel, boasts spacious decks, opulent interiors, and state-of-the-art amenities. The handwritten message on the card, postmarked 1 March 1912, reveals the excitement and anticipation of the era's grand maritime adventures. The sender expresses their admiration for the ship's grandeur and the breathtaking beauty of the ocean, as they share their experiences of life aboard RMS Olympic. As a testament to the golden age of ocean travel, this rare and captivating artifact offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the journey was as much a part of the experience as the destination. The intricate details of the White Star Line logo, the elegant script of the handwriting, and the nostalgic charm of the postmark all contribute to the timeless allure of this on board letter card."
