Does anyone know where i can find a good, large stern view of the Majestic 2? Also i was wonder if there are any photos of her being scrapped.
I'm also looking for a picture or 2 of the first Britannic, I've found a few but they're not very clear. |

There are several good photos of both ships. Try www.hospitalshipbritannic.com for more info on her, and www.ocean-liners.com for info about Majestic, also www.greatoceanliners.net and www.greatships.com.
Hope this helps!

Hi Chris!
Your first Britannic is also at some of the sites that Adam kindly supplied links for. As for photos of Majestic's stern, there are a number at the NMM, and some in a variety of liner books. Try Braynard's 1990 work on the 'Ballin Trio.'
Best regards,
Mark.

These were losing entries? I wonder what the winners looked like.

I've been trying to find out. The majority of the photos were not of ships (the theme was rather broad- "Travel") and aside from some airship shots fairly dull. |
