EARLY SOUVENIR SMALL VASE FROM THE FAMOUS CRUISE LINER THE RMS QUEEN MARY
This item is a really great find and an original early souvenir from the period. It is an 'as purchased on board' small vase souvenir showing on it a picture of the vessel the RMS Queen Mary and the name and is from her launch period days. In very good condition and not many seen around for sale.
[In 1934 the fantastic new design liner was launched by Queen Mary as RMS Queen Mary. On her way down the slipway, Queen Mary was slowed by eighteen drag chains, which checked the liner's progress into the Clyde, a portion of which had been widened to accommodate the launch. When she sailed on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England on 27 May 1936, she was commanded by Sir Edgar T. Britten, who had been the master designate for Cunard White Star whilst the ship was under construction at the John Brown shipyard.]
