One fateful night, a century ago...This is a 100th anniversary scale model of the Titanic to build yourself. Calling all Titanic buffs, hobbyists, and ship lovers: you're invited to build a cardboard model of the formidable and notorious vessel! Vast sums of money have been spent and enormous efforts have been made in order to explore the wreck, now lying 12,000 feet under the sea. However, if you are a Titanic enthusiast and you enjoy making things with your hands, then there is a far less troublesome alternative that will allow you to explore the ship in detail: a 1:200 cardboard model measuring ca 53 inches/135 cm (don't worry, it has cut and creased components and comes with detailed instructions). Marking the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's fated maiden voyage in 1912, TASCHEN's "Build Your Own Titanic" is the perfect way to commemorate.
