S.S. Olympic Postcard Circa 1900s

As you can tell by looking closely, this postcard features the White Star Line’s ship, the S.S Olympic. The postcard once belonged to the late H.A. Decker, whose family has ties to Ireland. Perhaps not surprisingly, the Olympic-class vessel was built in Belfast by Harland and Wolff for the White Star Line. It was completed in the early summer of 1911 and set sail that June. It proudly remained in service until 1935.
