1936 CESARE BATTISTI. At 10 p.m. on 23 December 1936 a boiler
exploded aboard the Italian 8331 ton steam ship Cesare Battisti
which was at anchor at Massowah Harbour, Eritrea. 26 people were
killed and over 100 injured. The ship sank and came to rest on the
bottom of the harbour. Only two items of mail are known, a cover
and this post card to Somalia. Both have a label attached written
in Italian. A very rare item from this incident
