Andrea Doria, 1956 US cartoon: A life ring lettered 'Andrea Doria' floats on a dark, rough sea beneath a large question mark

Andrea Doria (untitled)

A life ring lettered 'Andrea Doria' floats on a dark, rough sea beneath a large question mark, with gulls overhead. The cartoon poses an open question about the ship's loss without stating one; it makes no persuasive claim, so the technique tag fear-appeal is a weak fit at best.
