London, May 29: A large-scale plan of the Titanic, prepared for the official inquiry into the ship’s sinking, has fetched 220,000 pounds ($363,000) in a British auction.
The sale price beat expectations for the 32.5-foot-long (9.9-meter) cross-section of the ship.
Henry Aldridge & Son auctioneers had estimated it could fetch between 100,000 and 150,00 pounds at the sale in Devizes in southern England on Saturday.
