A propeller salvaged from the 32,000-ton Liverpool liner Lusitania.
Traveling from New York to Liverpool in 1915, she was torpedoed by a
German
submarine off southern Ireland and sank drowning 1,198 people, 128 of
which
were U.S. citizens. This act was a contributing factor that
brought
the U.S. into World War I. Link
