FERRARI of the SEAS

What a beauty, the Italian Line flagship MICHELANGELO (1965-1975), seen here underway racing towards New York... In true fact, she is not exactly New York bound yet, as this image was taken on her sea trials, note the A flag meaning (back in 1965) - ship undergoing sea trials...
One of a series of B&W photographs sent in 1977 by the Roma office of Finmare.

Beautiful image of an incredible liner, shame the way she and her sister ended their days
