TITANIC MODEL
Titanic was a British
ocean liner that sank on 15 April 1912 as a result
of hitting an iceberg on her maiden voyage from
Southampton, England to New York City, United
States. Titanic was the largest ship afloat. She
was equipped with 16 lifeboat davits, each capable
of lowering three lifeboats, for a total capacity of
48 boats. Despite this capacity, the ship was
scantly equipped with a total of only 20 lifeboats
which could hold 1,178 people — roughly half the
number of passengers on board.
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.)
Interest in the 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 in 1979. And then came the film
Titanic
model, 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.
The Titanic, and those she took with her, shall forever
remain in our imagination and hearts.

"The
Titanic model finally arrived at my house. The 36-inch
model is much bigger, grander, and more beautiful than I
thought. Thank you very much for your hard work in the
process of receiving orders, making models and cases,
packaging and shipping, and finally, import customs
clearance. And as I dismantled the package, I was
surprised again by its solidity. Once again, I sincerely
thank you for your hard work.
I'm so happy to be able to achieve my dream of more than
20 years since I happened to know ModelShipMaster
through internet search. Especially when I turned off
the lights in my room at night and turned on the lights
of the model, it was really spectacular. I will keep the
model and display case that you made carefully. I wish
MSM Team all the best in the future. Goodbye, Frank."

"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

when we can talk and Frank thank you
very much. Bye now.
