Burns, Commemoration 4b; cf. Eimer 1941Ab (for British copy); cf. Kienast 156 (for prototype). EF. See also lot 901 for a British copy of the same medal.From the J. Eric Engstrom Collection.Entering passenger service with the Cunard Line in 1907, the Lusitania continued the line's heavily-traveled service between Liverpool and New York City. After the outbreak of World War I, however, relations between Great Britain and Germany diminished, as the two became enemies within the conflict. This lead to Germany's declaration of submarine warfare upon the British Isles and a 'no-sail zone' for any vessel flying the British flag. On 7 May 1915, the Lusitania was identified by a German U-Boat, torpedoed, and sank in 18 minutes, killing over 60% of the passengers. The vessel went down 11 miles off the Old Head of Kinsale, Ireland, and instantly became an iconic symbol for American involvement into the now global conflict.Satirical German medallist Karl Goetz made the original medal concerning this event, but widespread attention from the British audience demanded a further supply of the medal, resulting in a copy such as this example. Though grim and gruesome from a British (and to a smaller degree, American) perspective, these medals were popular and desired for the memory of the liner and her ill-fated passengers. The copies were produced with the proceeds benefitting various charities. Description
