Shipwreck Paper Money: SS Andrea Doria, sunk
in 1956 off Nantucket 
|
The SS Andrea Doria
was an Italian luxury liner operated by the Italian Line from 1953 to
1956. During her three years of service, she had many transatlantic
voyages and became popular with passengers for her luxury
accommodations and quick speed. On the night of July 25, 1956, the
Andrea Doria collided with the MS Stockholm, a Swedish American
Line passenger liner, while travelling through heavy fog. The
Stockholm's bow penetrated the Andrea Doria's starboard side,
leaving a gaping hole. However, safety measures kept the Andrea Doria
afloat for 11 hours, long enough for the survivors to evacuate. All
together, 46 people died aboard the Andrea Doria while 6 crew
members of the Stockholm were killed.
Divers descended upon the
wreck just a day after its sinking to find it lying on its starboard
side at a depth of about 250 feet, far too deep for recreational diving.
Since then, through advances in diving equipment, technical divers are
able to reach the wreck. However, heavy currents, silt clouds and the
depth still make the Andrea Doria a difficult wreck to dive,
earning it the nickname "the Mount Everest of wreck diving." Regardless,
the allure of the ship's luxury and artifacts still on board bring
divers back again and again.

Please note there is an
shipping and insurance charge of $17 on this item.
