Rose, Alan.  "BUILD YOUR OWN TITANIC"  New York; Perigree Books: 1981. 
How many times have you said to yourself, “My life would be complete if
only I could build my own Titanic”? Well, this is your lucky day. This is
a complete scale waterline model of the Titanic, printed on heavy card
stock, ready to be cut out, folded and glued together (with extreme
patience, as there are several hundred pieces). Of course, if you do that
you destroy the value of the book, which is now more of a collector’s item
in itself for the Titanic completist than a potential (rather cheesy)
model. Rose provides a brief history of the ship and step-by-step
instructions with a bit of quirky humor; he even provides a folding
iceberg tip... now is that in good taste?  Softcover. 9”x12”, 12 pages
with b/w illustrations, plus 22 colored card pages; light wear to the
covers.  [05946]  $85.00
