AN IMPRESSIVE AND LARGE 1:86 SCALE STATIC DISPLAY MODEL OF THE WHITE STAR LINER S.S. OLYMPIC AS FITTED IN 1911

modelled by Y. Vladimirovich, with 128in. bespoke 3-D printed plastic hull, with plating, portholes, rudder and propellers, planked wooden deck with details including anchors with metal chain, deck rails, capstans, covered hatches, lowered cranes, glazed bridge, stayed funnels, covered lifeboats in davits, deck lights, benches with wooden slates, compass platform, pipework, ventilators, emergency helm and telegraphs, racked masts with wireless aerial and other details, mounted on cradles to grey cloth covered wooden display base -- overall measurements 36 x 134 x 18in. (91.5 x 340 x 46cm.)

Although nearly identical with her famous sister Titanic, several subtle alterations were incorporated in the Titanic's build. Perhaps most famously the A Deck promenade was found too bracing aboard Olympic and was partially enclosed with a roof and sliding windows aboard Titanic (and later, the Britannic); other differences include the layout of portholes and the location of the Marconi room which moved inwards and had a deck light added to give the operators some natural light.

This lot will be available for viewing at Imperial Road.
