EDITORS COMMENTS
Step aboard the luxurious world of White Star Line's RMS Olympic and RMS Titanic with this fascinating 1912 ten-page advertisement brochure. The worn and stained pictorial wrappers transport us back in time to an era of grand ocean liners and elegant transatlantic travel. The interior pages reveal the second class fares for a voyage on these magnificent vessels, with prices listed for various types of cabins and travel options. The RMS Olympic, the older sister ship to the ill-fated Titanic, offered second class passengers comfortable accommodations, including cabins with private bathrooms, spacious lounges, and dining rooms. The RMS Titanic, launched just a year earlier, boasted even more luxurious second class amenities, including a reading room, a Turkish bath, and a verandah café. Passengers could also enjoy a variety of activities, such as card games, dancing, and live music. The prices quoted in this brochure offer a glimpse into the cost of travel during this period. Second class passage on the RMS Olympic ranged from £13 10s for a single adult to £31 10s for a family of five. The RMS Titanic's second class fares were slightly higher, with a single adult fare starting at £15 5s and a family of five costing £42 10s. This unusual and intriguing brochure provides a unique perspective on the opulence and affordability of transatlantic travel during the early 1910s. A must-have for collectors of maritime history, ocean liner memorabilia, or social history.
