overall: 12 x 9 1/2 in.

Page from the album of Dr. Blackmarr, with two photographs taken from the deck of the CARPATHIA on the day the ship rescued the TITANIC survivors. The top photograph shows a flat iceberg, and Dr. Blackmarr has written next to it "Berg same as 0.5 as we circled around it. On the edge of wreckage. Not published." The lower photograph shows larger icebergs on the horizon and, apparently, was intended to also show the ice field beyond them. The note next to it says "miles of solid ice. Not published." The album page is labeled 11.
