caption: DISASTRI 26 July 1956 "The catastrophe of the 'Andrea Doria'. At night, off the Atlantic coast of the United States, the Swedish passenger steamer 'Stockholm' of 12,600 tons, due to the thick fog hit our turboprop Andrea Doria "headed for New York. Because of the tremendous leak, our unit tilted on its side and sank 11 hours later, when the 1134 passengers had already been transferred to the ships and the crew with the staff was saved, but eight dead and several wounded complain. "Together with the" Christopher Columbus ", the" Andrea Doria "was our largest, fastest and most beautiful transatlantic. It displaced 30 thousand tons". Drawing by Giorgio Tabet (4 February 1904 - 4 November 2002) for the cover of "La Domenica del Corriere". Milan, 5 August 1956.
