Step back in time with this elegant invitation and restaurant card from the early 20th century, inviting Mr. George F. Morrell of The Graphic to embark on a luxurious Channel trip aboard the renowned White Star Line cruise ship, RMS Olympic. The voyage began in Southampton and made stops at Cherbourg in France and Queenstown on the south coast of Ireland. The RMS Olympic, a sister ship to the ill-fated Titanic, was known for its opulence and grandeur. This invitation serves as a testament to the refined hospitality and sophistication of ocean travel during this era. The accompanying restaurant card provides a glimpse into the lavish dining experience onboard, with prices listed for various meals and drinks. The card reads, "White Star Line, R.M.S.

The reverse side of the card features a detailed list of meal and drink offerings, including items such as "Roast Beef, Boiled Ham, Chicken, Mutton Chops, Sausages, Eggs, and various types of fish."
