The May Collection: RMS Lusitania - A Nautical Journey through Time Step back in time with this exquisite pair of vintage silk postcards from the May Collection, showcasing the iconic RMS Lusitania in all her glory. These beautifully preserved relics of maritime history, available from Mary Evans Prints Online, transport us to a bygone era of luxury travel on the high seas. The first postcard presents the majestic RMS Lusitania, proudly flying her Portuguese and British flags as she cuts through the tranquil waters. The intricate design of the flags, rendered in meticulous detail on the silk, adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the image. The stars and stripes shimmer in the sunlight, while the ship's elegant silhouette and billowing smoke stacks evoke a sense of excitement and adventure. The second postcard captures a moment of camaraderie and connection as two sailors shake hands on the deck of the Lusitania. Their confident grins and relaxed posture convey a sense of camaraderie and shared experience, while the ship's grandeur serves as a backdrop to their simple yet meaningful gesture. These silk postcards, produced by Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd., offer a glimpse into the opulence and romance of ocean liner travel during the early 20th century. Each postcard is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the past, making them a must-have for collectors, historians, and anyone with a passion for transportation and travel history.
