Photo of Lusitania's telegraph

As you know Elbert Hubbard and his wife Alice died on the Lusitania in May 1915.

Lusitania_wreck_telegraph Here is an underwater photo of the telegraph used on this ill-fated ship. This photo is courtesy of the Irish Government, under which the wreck of the Lusitania has been protected as national heritage site since 1995.

When Elbert and Alice did not return, Elbert's son Bert took over running the Roycroft.

The Roycroft Campus Corporation is working on rebuilding the Campus "as if Elbert Hubbard never left". Come visit us at 31 Grove St, East Aurora, NY. You will see this National Historic Landmark Campus starting to return to its former glory as if Elbert (and Alice) never went on the Lusitania.
