Titanic First-Class Menu Replicas Set 1
Aboard Titanic was a printer’s shop stocked with stationary to inform all passengers what was on the menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. These replicas are to the exact measurements — except they aren’t pressed!
Three menus from three days of Titanic’s voyage.
These are copies of menus that survived the ship, and would have been seen on tables in the dining saloon.April 10th dinner including mutton cutlets, roast duck, and “sirlion” of beef — typos are included from the original!
April 11th breakfast with lamp chops, omelettes to order, and cold meat.
“Sirloin” is correct this time! Perhaps breakfast had a different printing setup.The final lunch on April 14th with a buffet featuring salmon, shrimps, herrings, and sardines.
The logos and font have been researched and recreated by THG historian Nicolas Murgia.
These menus are printed on thicker cardstock, but not quite as thick as the originals which were pressed.
This is to allow printing on our modern plotter.The original menus went through a chemical process called thermographic printing.
This allowed the color in R.M.S. “TITANIC”, and the White Star Line and Ocean Steamship Navigation Company logos to be raised.
This process makes the original menus expensive but for the recreations it must be excluded (for now.)Each menu is cut and trimmed by hand — some slight variation is expected like with original artifacts.
Paper color might vary slightly from photos.
Securely mailed in a tough envelope for protection. There is no tracking on this item.
