In this photo print, we witness a historic moment as the majestic Cunard liner Queen Mary embarks on her final journey from Southampton to her retirement berth in Long Beach, California. It is October 1967, and the world bids farewell to this iconic vessel that has graced the seas for decades. As she sets sail into the vast ocean, an unexpected companion joins her voyage - the Royal Navy Aircraft Carrier HMS Illustrious. This remarkable sight symbolizes a seamless transition of power from one maritime legend to another. The two vessels navigate side by side, showcasing their grandeur against the backdrop of endless waves. The image captures not only a significant event but also evokes nostalgia for an era when these magnificent ships ruled international waters. The 1960s were a time of great change and progress, and this photograph encapsulates both military might and civilian luxury in perfect harmony. Reed Cooper Tibbles' keen eye for detail allows us to relive this extraordinary moment in history through his lens.
