TITANIC model

RMS Titanic was a British ocean liner that sank on 15 April 1912 as a result of striking an iceberg on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England to New York City, United States. She was the largest ship afloat upon entering service.

The first-class accommodation was designed to be the pinnacle of comfort and luxury. It included a gymnasium, swimming pool, smoking rooms, fine restaurants and cafes, a Victorian-style Turkish bath, and hundreds of opulent cabins. A high-powered radiotelegraph transmitter was available to send passenger "marconigrams."

The RMS Titanic was an unabashed celebration of opulence and technological wizardry. On her maiden voyage, she attracted an impressive roster of internationally known names. Titanic's 329 first-class passengers had an aggregate wealth exceeding $500 million! (an equivalent of about 13 billion dollars in 2020.)

Perhaps the most amazing story was from the mining magnate Benjamin Guggenheim, 46. The night of the Titanic sinking, Guggenheim and his secretary assisted women and children with getting on the lifeboats, all while dressed in their finest. The businessman later remarked, “we’ve dressed up in our best and are prepared to go down like gentlemen.” His final act was to write this message to his wife: "No woman shall be left aboard this ship because Ben Guggenheim is a coward."

Another industrialist, the steel magnate George Dennick Wick, 58, was seen waving to his wife, daughter, cousin, and aunt as they getting away on a Titanic lifeboat.

The most notable couple onboard the RMS Titanic was the Strauss. The 67-year-old Isidor Straus refused to board the lifeboat before the younger men and women had a place. His wife Ida also refused to board the lifeboat, preferring to die with her husband than to be separated from him. Isidor Strauss was a co-owner of Macy's department store.

The richest passenger onboard the Titanic model was John Jacob Astor IV--a member of the prominent Astor family and helped build the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City. Astor, 47, and his young wife were returning to the states for the birth of a new child. He managed to get his wife aboard a lifeboat. His wife survived while he was last seen clinging to the side of a raft.

Interest in the RMS Titanic story has never strayed far from the public eye. In 1953, Twentieth Century Fox released the movie Titanic. Walter Lord's famous book A Night to Remember soon followed in 1955. The book became so popular that in 1958 a movie was made based upon it and starred the popular British actor Kenneth More who played Second Officer Lightoller.

Other movies followed such as Raise the Titanic, a movie based on the popular novel by Clive Cussler, and S.O.S. Titanic model in 1979. And then came the film Titanic, which was directed by James Cameron. It won numerous Film Awards and has become the biggest grossing movie of all time.

After the Titanic‘s discovery in 1985 by the research ship Knorr, interest in the story was raised to new levels and it appears that it will never die. The story of the Titanic has become so entrenched in our society that it has become a part of our culture. She, and those she took with her, shall forever remain in our imagination and hearts.

 

This primarily wood Titanic model features:

- Plank-on-frame hull. This construction method gives accurate hulls, as artisans create the frame of the hull exactly like in drawings. The solid hull method, on the other hand, employs most guesswork on the degree of curvature.

- Windows are cutouts (not black decals or painted indentation) which are clean, uniform, and aligned. We are not shy to show the model in large photos. Nothing to hide!

- Captivating artistic lighting, with green/red navigation light that will light up your special evenings. LED light powered by standard 9v battery for your convenience or by a compact adapter to wall outlet. Cheap model makers have neither the artistry sense nor the necessary engineering ability. Their light is ugly bright incandescent bright placed on the model's floor like mushrooms.

Titanic models might appear good from afar but when examined closely, they are quite different. When you look, pay particular attention to accuracy. When you compare models, focus on accuracy and details: the hull plates, the restaurants' windows, the shape of the lifeboats, the navigation system on the aft bridge, and many more.  To learn more about quality in general, click here: accurate Titanic model.

"I wanted to thank Frank for the greatest, extraordinary Titanic model. It came today beautifully packed. Everything was in flawless condition. I will send you a photograph of it for you I'm sure you seen a thousand photographs of these models but we're really excited it was a wonderful day for us. It's on one of the big tables in the main room in the library right now and I don't quite know how to express my admiration and thanks for that model. It's quite remarkable. It has a great deal to do with our club because five of our members perished on the Titanic and we're going to have a special dinner on April 13 where the model will be brought into the big room in the main room for dinner black tie and I'll try to reach you sometime when we can talk and Frank thank you very much. Bye now. Frank Arisman, The Union Club www.theunionclub.com"

"Thank you for these wonderful pictures...for making the time and care. I deeply appreciate it. If added to the website, they would likely boost sales of this particular model. There isn't another on the market (that I've seen) to compare with this!!!... Again, thank you! Lee H."

"Titanic model arrived yesterday. The ship is absolutely beautiful. I will most certainly credit you folks in your artistry, creativity, quality. I would like some company brochures if possible." Thanks, Curtis F."
