EDITORS COMMENTS
This collection of personal ephemera offers a unique glimpse into the lives of Richard and Stanley May, two passengers aboard White Star Line's RMS Titanic. Dating back to the 1910s, this small archive includes a variety of intriguing items that tell the story of their experiences leading up to the ill-fated voyage. One of the most notable items is a Southampton's South Western Hotel luncheon menu from July 1914, signed by both brothers. This menu commemorates the Spithead Review, a grand naval review held in the Solent to celebrate the coronation of King George V. The brothers' signatures add a personal touch to this historical document, providing a tangible connection to the past. Another intriguing piece is the top of a piece of onboard stationery from RMS Olympic, dated September 20th, 1911. This date holds significance as it marks the day of the Hawke collision incident, where the Olympic collided with the British cruiser HMS Hawke. The fragment of stationery offers a reminder of the brothers' close encounter with maritime history before their journey on the Titanic. The archive also includes more intimate items, such as a cutting of Stanley's hair, his inkwell, and his cash book. These items provide a glimpse into their daily lives and offer a sense of the luxury and comfort they enjoyed during their cruises aboard these magnificent ships. This collection of items offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of two passengers on the Titanic and provides a unique perspective on the era of luxury liners and ocean travel in the early 20th century.
