EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite and extremely rare breakfast menu hails from the HMHS Britannic, the younger sister of the ill-fated RMS Titanic. Dated September 26, 1916, it is a fascinating glimpse into the opulent world of ocean travel just weeks before the Britannic's tragic sinking on November 21, 1916. With only a handful of menus from the Britannic known to exist, this artifact offers a unique insight into the gourmet offerings and impeccable catering services aboard this grand vessel. The menu, adorned with the distinctive red ensign of the British White Star Line and a gleaming white star, exudes an air of elegance and refinement. The items listed read like a veritable feast for the senses, with offerings such as "Scrambled Eggs and Bacon," "Kidney Pudding," "Sausages and Bacon," "Melon," and "Fresh Strawberries and Cream." The menu's classic design, with its elegant font and crisp white background, adds to its timeless appeal. The 1910s were a golden age of transportation, and the HMHS Britannic was a shining example of the luxury and sophistication that defined the era. This menu serves as a poignant reminder of that bygone era, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the sumptuous breakfasts enjoyed by passengers aboard this magnificent ship. This rare and intriguing artifact is available for purchase through Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd., a renowned dealer in historical memorabilia and collectibles. Whether for personal collection or academic research, this breakfast menu from the HMHS Britannic is sure to be a cherished addition to any historical archive or maritime museum.
