MAJESTIC: VEDUTE IN TERZA CLASSE

The White Star Line produced a number of brochures which advertised third class travel onboard Majestic. Although such promotional material was ordinary enough, this much rarer brochure was marked out as something different: for it was entirely in Italian, and aimed at attracting Italians to fill the ship’s extensive third class accommodation.

‘Il Piu Grande Vapore Del Mondo Majestic: 56,000 Tonn Vedute in Terza Classe.’ Translation (inexact): Greatest Steamer of the World Majestic 56,000 Tons: Views in the Third Class.
-- The brochure cover used an image of one of Majestic’s funnels, even taking the shape of the emitted steam at the top of the page. (Author’s collection.)
