1912 Titanic survivor Beatrice Sandstrom signed rare 1994 Wessex Maiden Voyage cover. The Sandstroms boarded the Titanic at Southampton, England on April 10, 1912, as Third Class passengers. The family shared cabin G6 with Elna Ström and her two-year-old daughter, Selma. Shortly after Titanics collision with the iceberg at 11:40 P. M. on April 14, Agnes and Elna were woken by a steward and told to get up to the Boat Deck. The women dressed their daughters and made their way to the deck. In the confusion on the Aft Well Deck ladder, Agnes lost sight of the Stroms and never saw them again; Elna and Selma both perished. The Sandstroms were loaded into lifeboat 13 which was lowered shortly before lifeboat 15, and the women had a scare when a stream of water put them underneath lifeboat 15, which nearly came on top of them. They were picked up by the rescue ship RMS Carpathia. The ship arrived in New York City on April 18. After its arrival, Agnes and her daughters were sent to St. Vincent Hospital, and then continued on their way to California. In the fall of 1912, the Sandstrom family moved back to Motala, Ostergötland, Sweden. Although Beatrice did not remember anything about the voyage, as a child, she used to say: "Look, the moon is falling down", perhaps in reference to the distress rockets fired as the ship went down. After the sinking, Agnes and her daughters headed back to San Francisco for only a few months. They sold their house, packed up everything they owned and returned to New York. It has been said that because of what happened on the Titanic, Hjalmar bought their tickets from the Cunard Line and in August 1912, the family sailed back to England aboard the RMS Mauretania as Second Class passengers. From England they sailed on another ship for Sweden, where they remained for the rest of their lives. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
