With
the shipping industry competition growing rapidly
during the start of the 20th century, many companies
put out advertisements or in this case a brochure,
showing pictures of the various ships in their fleet.
This "Famous Cunarders" ad, dated February
1912, folds out to display drawings several ships
to include: R.M.S. Mauretania (cover), Panonnia,
Carmania, Caronia, Saxonia, Ivernia, Franconia,
Loconia, Carpathia (shown), Campania and Lustiania.
Many are well known today but the most famous are
the Carpathia and Lustiania.
