(Fox News) – A photo purportedly showing the iceberg that sank the Titanic is
expected to sell for over $15,000 when it is auctioned in the U.K. on Saturday.
Henry Aldridge & Son is auctioning the remarkable photo and a fascinating
document that accompanies it. The photograph was taken by the chief steward
of the liner Prinz Adalbert on the morning of April 15, 1912. The Titanic, which
struck an iceberg at 11.40 p.m. ship’s time on April 14, sank just over two hours
later with the loss of more than 1,500 lives.
