Special Edition Titanic Launch in Branson
The launch and grand opening on April 7, 2006 of the Titanic Museum Attraction in Branson, Missouri was stunning. A warm, sunny early spring morning was a great beginning after disappointing delays and a cold, wet winter. Your eyes are not playing tricks seeing a mammoth ocean liner with buff and black funnels rising 100 feet above sailing onto the main street as a spray of water rises from her bow as she cuts through the “ocean”. The newest Titanic attraction, now open in Branson, certainly commands attention at the intersection of 76 Country Boulevard and Gretna Road. “Thousands of people line up to participate in the grand opening” announced the News-Leader (Springfield, Missouri) Saturday, April 8, 2006 in a front page story above the fold including a large photo. Lining sidewalks and hillsides Friday morning, April 7th, they came to witness the official grand opening and christening ceremony of Titanic—World’s Largest Museum Attraction, and to see TV personality, Regis Philbin. In this special edition celebrating the launch and opening, there are dozens of gorgeous color photos and eighteen pages that tell the story. Unsolved questions about the sinking of Titanic are a reason that draw us to her story. We are pleased to feature two original and absorbing investigations in this issue. The first was completed early in 2005; the second is a follow-up by Parks Stephenson to Simon Mills’ article, More Questions Than Answers and the History Channel, Titanic’s Final Moments documentary first televised in February 2006. Shortly after the kerfuffle caused from the 1998 Titanic movie depicting a shooting by Officer Murdoch, Tad Fitch and Bill Wormstedt began their sleuthing involving dozens of people and a wealth of sources. Following the tried and true method of Sherlocking the whereabouts and statements of passengers, officers and crew, the result is a well-organized and very readable bit of detective work. As this journal went to press, we lost a dear friend, Ken Shultz and Lillian Gertrud Asplund, the last American Titanic survivor died. Although she lived nearby, she maintained her privacy throughout her life. Paul Phaneuf, a funeral director and THS advisory board member put his thoughts on paper in part two of her story in the next issue. There are always people looking for overlooked Titanic treasures. Karen Kamuda found one on eBay, unbelievable as that seems.
