The
RMS Olympic shown painted camouflage for service
in World War I. It was converted from a luxury liner
into a troop transport ship. This real picture postcard
is highly desirable amongst collectors.
Not only was the outside
painted but the inside was as well. For years many
speculated as to the shade of green that might have
been used. Thankfully we own a piece of grand
staircase wood showing the various layers
of paint that was used on Olympic.
