"ICEBERG RIGHT AHEAD" TWO IMAGES OF THE BERG THAT SANK RMS TITANIC RP

Description

YOU WILL RECIEVE REPRINTS OF BOTH IMAGES.
This listing is for reprints (2) of the iceberg that is most likey to have sunk the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912.
IMAGE #1
The first image was taken by the chief steward of the German ocean liner
SS Prinz Adalbert
, which on April 15, 1912, was sailing through the North Atlantic a mere 3 miles south from where the
Titanic
had sunk the night before. At the time, the chief steward hadn't yet learned of the
Titanic
's fate, so he wasn't even on the lookout for icebergs. He simply spotted a streak of red paint along the iceberg's base, which most likely meant a ship had collided with it in the last 12 hours. The red paint peaked his curiosity and he snapped the image.
IMAGE #2
This image was taken by a Captain De Carteret of the
Minia
, one of a few cable ships -- vessels ordinarily used to lay deep sea cables, such as those for telecommunications -- sent to the site of the shipwreck, from Nova Scotia, to recover corpses and debris. The captain claimed this was the only iceberg in the area, and the red paint was again a clear sign that a ship had recently struck it. There's some disagreement over whether this was the
only
iceberg in the area, but it certainly seems likely that
something
had hit it, and the odds are good that that something was the
Titanic
.
