OLD WOODEN ITEM FROM THE WHITE STAR LINE

DESCRIPTION -- From the White Star Line this is a very old wooden handmade object made from on board the famous old liner the Britannic, one of the fleets most famous ships. It was made by the Quartermaster from sections of old packing cases and still reads on the back 'STANMORE', and the front reads WHITE STAR LINE M.V. BRITANNIC. As can be seen from the picture provided, it is a nicely decorative and beautifully made item and was possibly made as a pipe rack or holder of slim items with the size being 14" x 10" (36cm x 26cm).

HISTORY -- The Oceanic Steam Navigation Company or White Star Line of Boston Packets, more commonly known as the White Star Line, was a prominent British shipping company, today most famous for its ill-fated vessel, the RMS Titanic, and the World War I loss of Titanic's sister ship Britannic. In 1934 the line merged with its chief rival, Cunard Line, which operated as a separate entity until 2005 and is now part of Carnival Corporation & PLC.
