EDITORS COMMENTS
The May Collection: Five Exquisite Silk Postcards, a Vintage Maritime Masterpiece Step back in time with this enchanting set of five silk postcards, part of The May Collection, showcasing the elegance and grandeur of ocean liner travel during the golden age of transatlantic voyages. These beautifully preserved silk postcards, available exclusively from Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd. via Mary Evans Prints Online, invite us to embark on a journey through history, as we admire the iconic vessels Saxonia, Mauretania, and Corsican in all their splendor. Each postcard, crafted from the finest silk, features a meticulously detailed illustration of these magnificent steamers against the vast, azure backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean. The Saxonia, proudly flying the British flag, cuts through the waves with grace and power, while the Mauretania, the epitome of American maritime prowess, boasts the Stars and Stripes. The Corsican, a French beauty, raises the Union Jack, symbolizing the international camaraderie that defined this era of luxury travel. These silk postcards are not only exquisite works of art but also a testament to the rich history of ocean liner travel. The intricate designs, with their lifelike depictions of the ships, their flags, and the sea, transport us back to a time when crossing the Atlantic was an adventure in itself. The May Collection is a must-have for any maritime enthusiast, collector, or anyone who appreciates the beauty and romance of a bygone era. As we hold these delicate, silk postcards in our hands, we are reminded of the thrill of anticipation that came with embarking on a transatlantic voyage. The May Collection invites us to relive that sense of excitement, as we marvel at the majesty of these ocean liners and the boundless freedom of the sea.
