Sorry that is another falsehood or fake photo when you see the Titanic with the name on the bow because in real life the name TITANIC was not painted on the bow! Those photographs are doctored with the lettering.

I wonder why that photo of Titanic during its trials was (computer) edited, though...


I have numerous pieces of footage of the Olympic that was doctored to pass it off for Titanic from back in the early 1900's when footage of a ship to pass off as the Titanic were needed. Some footage of Capt Smith aboard a ship reported as the Titanic was also doctored in the same manner to promote Capt Smith's adventures aboard the Titanic. Which were never filmed during his command aboard the Titanic.

I'm sure the photo was altered to increase it's value as a "rare" find and sold for profit. Amazing it was actually a amature touch up job that fooled many.

Now the market is being flooded with fake survivor signatures and computer generated copies of photos and post cards of the Titanic.

Even the movie clip shown here on the groups Movie Clip section is a altered tape. If you look carefully at the names on the back of the tugboats you will notice that they were frame by frame scratched out where the tug's name is. The ship is actually the Olympic. By hiding the escort tugs name it the bcome. It makes IDing the actual ship hard if you can't place a tug with a certain ship.

Notice the name on the tugs
