DESCRIPTION -- Unused B/W postcard of the Royal Mail Line vessel the RMS Amazon which is in an excellent condition and is an early very rare postcard.
[ONLY 1 AVAILABLE]
CONDITION -- Excellent
HISTORY -- The fury of the war at sea would end the Royal Mail Line vessel RMS Amazon, as on 15 March 1918, when she was about 30 miles from Ponta Malin, she was torpedoed without warning by a German submarine, sinking a few minutes later. The RMS Amazon had left Liverpool a day before for Brazil and Plata, without escorts and with 24 passengers on board. Thick fog forced her to travel at slow speed.
