The Independent weekly magazine, May 30, 1912, 6.75 x 9.75, 52 pages, which features a few Titanic interest pieces. Includes a letter to the editor praising a past editorial concerning “the heroes of the ‘Titanic,’” as well as an article about the German maritime program, in part: “The Hamburg-American liner ‘Imperator’ was launched at Hamburg on May 23. This is the largest steamship in the world, 10.5 feet longer than the ‘Titanic.’” Also of interest is a lengthy feature about John Masefield, the English writer whose own experience at sea informed much of his work. In fine condition, with light overall toning and trivial damp staining to the spine.
