Rare pair of identical, unused Tichnor Bros. “Steamer Titanic” postcards showing the Titanic with the disaster facts on the left side. The first printing had the number of lives lost at 1300. When the number was finally made known, the printer’s plate was edited on the last line for the second printing changing the ‘3’ to a ‘5’ in 1300: first printing showing 1300 lives; used; April 22, 1912, cancel message is in German; and the second printing showing 1500 lives. Text on reverse is from Tichnor Bros. in blue type, dated and posted April 25, 1912: “We are sending you under separate cover sheet ‘Titanic’ also sample cards — $5.00 per M Sheets, 16 x 22, $40.00 per M. Cash must accompany every order. Tichnor Bros. Inc.”
