| The unsinkable Titanic, all 45,000 tons of her made her fateful
first and last voyage from Southampton on 10th April 1912 after briefly calling
at Cherburg and then on to Queenstown (Cobh) en route she headed for the North
Atlantic - 'the rest is history' - 4 days later on the night of the 14th April
she hit an iceberg and sank. That terrible night saw the loss of 1,523 lives
from its total of 2,228 passengers and crew before the Cunard owned Carpathia
picked up the survivors. To mark 'Titanic's 85th year anniversary - 2 limited
edition vehicles, a Bullnose (No110G) and a Model T (No045TG) have been
commissioned by the Rembrandt Organisation who specialise in Titanic souvenirs
and memorabilia, and the first 85 of each model together with Special
Commemorative certificates will be issued to them. The same special
certificates depicting the Titanic will carry the edition number and accompany
each vehicle for members. The certificates for the Model T and Bullnose are both
the same, as they depict the Titanic in different photographs.
The edition is small, just 5100 pieces of each in total, of which 2500 of
each will be available in the U.S.A. |
