EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative collection of ephemera offers a poignant glimpse into the lives of two brothers, Richard and Stanley May, who were passengers on the RMS Titanic during its ill-fated maiden voyage in 1912. The May Collection, archived at Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd., includes a precious assortment of personal items that offer a unique insight into their experiences before the tragic sinking of the ship. Among the treasured items is a South Western Hotel luncheon menu from July 1914, signed by both brothers. This menu commemorates the Spithead Review, a naval review held in Portsmouth Harbour to celebrate the coronation of King George V. The brothers' signatures add a personal touch to this historical document, providing a tangible connection to their lives during a time of celebration and joy, just eight years after the Titanic disaster. Another intriguing piece in the collection is the top of a piece of onboard stationery from the RMS Olympic, dated September 20th, 1911. This date holds significance as it was the day of the Hawke incident, where the Olympic collided with the British cruiser Hawke in the English Channel. The fragment of stationery, bearing the Olympic's crest, offers a tangible link to this near-disaster, which took place just a year before the Titanic's tragic voyage. The collection also includes a cutting of Stanley May's hair, his inkwell, and his cash book, which further add to the rich tapestry of their stories. These items provide a glimpse into their daily lives, offering a poignant reminder of the ordinary experiences that were forever changed by the extraordinary events of the Titanic disaster.
