June 30, 1906

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN SUPPLEMENT, New York, June 30, 1906  A great issue on something what would have much more meaning within nine years, as the full ftpg. is taken up with 3 photos of: "The Cunard Liner 'Lusitania' " which was just christened on June 7. Most of pg. 2 is taken up with an article on the ship plus another photo of it.
This is the ship that would be one of the worse maritime disasters when it would sink in May, 1915. Interesting to find this issue from when it was built.
Sixteen pages, minimal wear, good condition.
