RMS Republic was a steam-powered ocean liner built in 1903 by Harland and Wolff in Belfast, and lost at sea in a collision in 1909 while sailing for the White Star Line. Known as the "Millionaires' Ship" because of the number of wealthy Americans who traveled by her, she was described as a "palatial liner" and was the flagship of White Star Line's Boston service.

    On the reverse of the postcard is blank, except for printed instructions that read: "POST CARD. CARTE POSTALE. UNIVERSAL POSTAL UNION. This Space may be used for correspondence.
