Queen Mary

This detailed technical engraving of the famous Ocean Linear"Queen Mary " has
been diamond engraved into black polished aluminium. The profile line drawing
has taken many hours of digitising by our team of experienced designers.

Mounted onto a 9" x 7" verneered plinth it is easily fitted to the wall
with the wall hanging slot.

Built at the John Brown shipyard on the Clyde, Scotland, in 1937, the Queen Mary held the record for the fastest-ever North Atlantic crossing, and for three years she carried the rich and famous across the Atlantic in great luxury.
She was bigger, faster and more powerful than her predecessor the Titanic and successfully crossed the Atlantic Ocean 1,001 times.

During WWII she was refitted as a troop ship, her capacity increased from 2,410 to 5,500, Queen Mary carried troops to the war and Winston Churchill to war conferences for the next six years. She survived a collision at sea, carried the most people ever on a floating vessel (16,683), and participated in the D-Day invasion.

Today she can be seen at Long Beach, California where she has been converted into a hotel and tourist attraction.
