EDITORS COMMENTS
This early 20th century American postcard, published by Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd., showcases an intriguing comparison of two iconic ocean liners, RMS Olympic and RMS Titanic, from the White Star Line, in relation to the heights of various important buildings and monuments. The image captures the awe-inspiring size and scale of these magnificent vessels as they surpass many architectural wonders of the time. The RMS Olympic, the older sister ship to the ill-fated Titanic, is depicted on the left side of the postcard. Measuring 882 feet 9 inches in length, it was the largest ship in the world when it was launched in 1911. The postcard illustrates its impressive size by placing it next to several notable structures, including the Washington Monument, the Eiffel Tower, and the Statue of Liberty. On the right side, the RMS Titanic, which was even larger than the Olympic, is shown dwarfing these landmarks. Launched just two years later in 1912, the Titanic measured an astonishing 882 feet 9 inches in length and 92 feet 6 inches in beam. The postcard emphasizes its colossal size by positioning it next to the same buildings and monuments, highlighting the sheer difference in scale between these maritime marvels and the structures that were considered the finest and largest in the world at the time. This postcard offers a fascinating glimpse into the transport and travel era, showcasing the awe and wonder that these ships inspired in the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and ambition of the time, when man-made structures and vessels pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible.
