1. Title: "Ocean Liners of the 1910s: A Vintage Postcard Collection" Caption: Step back in time with this collection of four vintage postcards showcasing the grandeur and elegance of ocean liners during the 1910s. These postcards, sourced from the extensive archives of Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd. from Mary Evans Prints Online, offer a fascinating glimpse into the world of luxury maritime travel. The first postcard features the iconic RMS Titanic and RMS Olympic of the White Star Line. Postmarked in July 1912 from Pennsylvania, this postcard was sent by an excited traveler, advertising the use of traveler's cheques issued by the American Bankers Association. The Titanic, known for its opulence and tragic sinking, and its sister ship, the Olympic, represented the pinnacle of ocean liner design and innovation during this era. The second postcard displays a striking image of another ocean liner, with the caption "Ships that sent ice warnings to Titanic." This postcard serves as a poignant reminder of the critical role that communication and cooperation between ships played during this time. The third postcard in the series showcases the response of various ships to the SOS call from the stricken Titanic. The postcard, postmarked in the 1910s, is a poignant tribute to the heroic efforts of these vessels and their crews to save lives during the tragic event. The final postcard in the collection features the elegant lines and sleek design of an unidentified ocean liner. With its handwritten message and 1910s postmark, this postcard offers a glimpse into the romantic allure and adventure of ocean travel during this bygone era. These postcards not only serve as beautiful decorative pieces but also offer a unique historical perspective on the golden age of ocean liners and the role they played in shaping the world of transportation and travel.
