1/550 RMS Titanic

Product Code: 81305

Description

The TITANIC was lost in the depths for 73 years, its discovery in
1985 and subsequent exploration have made Titanic the best-known
ship of all time. The many events relating to the Titanic have
made it a legend. It was the subject of Watergate-type
investigation in the U.S. The present safety standards applied to
shipping are attributed to this event. Harland and Wolfe,
builders of the Titanic and its sister ship, the Olympic, were
unable to provide drawings, which were destroyed during WWII, or
their model which disappeared during the Senate investigations in
1912. The model was, however, constructed from original
drawings, photographs taken by survivors and other technical
journals, many of which were provided by the Titanic Historical
Society resulting in a model indistinguishable from the original
ship.
