Fire & Ice: Hindenburg and Titanic is an innovative exhibit that brings together two marvels of transportation. Both the Titanic and Hindenburg served demands for rapid worldwide communication and transportation. Both operated as the world's largest mobile post offices. Each in its day promised the fastest possible worldwide mail service. Each offered onboard gentility and opulence. Each met a tragic end.
Robert Frost mused in his immortal poem Fire and Ice, Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice.... After enjoying the magnificence offered by the legendary ships and opportunities to post correspondence at various exotic sites, thousands of unprepared travelers met their tragic ends, as Frost said, in either fire or ice. Fire & Ice celebrates the splendors of both vessels and commemorates their calamities.
