EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a section of the anchor cable from the iconic RMS Queen Mary, taken in the 1930s. The RMS Queen Mary, a true marvel of the maritime world, was a luxurious ocean liner that set sail during the golden age of transatlantic travel. Measuring approximately 1,019 feet in length and weighing over 81,000 gross register tons, she was one of the largest and most opulent ships of her time. The anchor cable in the image, with links two feet in length, is a testament to the sheer size and weight of this magnificent vessel. Anchor cables are essential for the safe mooring of ships, especially those as large as the RMS Queen Mary. This cable, made up of heavy, interlinked chains, would have provided the necessary grip and support to secure the ship to the seabed. The RMS Queen Mary, with her distinctive art deco design and lavish interior, represented the pinnacle of luxury travel during the 1930s. Her transatlantic voyages between Southampton, England, and New York City, United States, were a symbol of glamour and sophistication. This photograph, with its intriguing focus on the anchor cable, offers a unique perspective on the engineering and logistical aspects of operating such a colossal vessel. The 1930s, also known as the Roaring Twenties or the Jazz Age, was a time of great social and cultural change. This era, marked by prosperity, innovation, and artistic expression, is beautifully encapsulated in the image of the RMS Queen Mary's anchor cable. The photograph, by Terry Parker, is a fascinating reminder of the grandeur and allure of ocean liner travel during this bygone era.
