    Description

    14 x 9.5 cm / 5.5" x 3.75" when closed - postcard sized
    Small brochure in Spanish advertising all classes of passenger accommodation aboard the 10,000 ton, quadruple screw (2 turbines, 2 triple-expansion engines) Spanish Line liner the REINA VICTORIA EUGENIA of 1913. Together with her sister ship, the INFANTA ISABEL DE BORBON, she brought the Spanish merchant marine up to date in terms of safety, comfort and propulsion. Renamed ARGENTINA after the fall of the Spanish monarchy in 1931, both she and her sister ship (now renamed URUGUAY) were sunk at their moorings during Nationalist air raids of Barcelona in 1939 during the Spanish Civil War.
