I have a few cards of the Mauretania with the mention of the Olympic and Titanic on the back of it. How much are these worth? I have seen and bought a few off of ebay these past few weeks for pretty cheap. I feel that the price I payed for them (few bucks apiece) was a steal!
Hello, this model is from my teen years, I decided to keep it as is because I'd like to do another as a hospital ship.
The model is from the box, I reccall making the decision not to install lifeboats when I builded it, the second will have them.
I came across the following image online, which is a colourization of the Library & Writing Room on the R.M.S. Mauretania. I have a question about it and so thought I would consult the knowledgeable members of this forum.
Of course when she was launched, this room was decorated with...
Hey. I was just wondering if people had any pictures of Mauretania's interior. (1907) I'm mainly looking for pictures of the 3rd class entrance hall, 3rd class smoke room, 3rd class lounge/ladies room, and the 3rd class dining saloon. Also, I'm looking for some pictures of the 2nd class...
I've noticed in most of the footage of both Mauretania and Aquitania, their decks seem to be cluttered with a myriad of horn shaped pipes, as opposed to other liners (the Olympic-class for example only had a few of these pipes on deck) is there a particular reason Mauretania and Aquitania had so...

Viewer discretion is advised...if you don't like ship designs being butchered.
Just looking though Google and on another forum came across this weird screenshot taken from the BBC TV Show ''Peaky Blinders'' showing a weird amalgamation of the Titanic at Liverpool (in 1923!)

Hi,
For anyone who's interested I've just completed part 1 of a 3D project I've been working on at Tyne and Wear Archives. You may already know Tyne and Wear archives holds an extensive collection of Mauretania reference material, I've utilised several parts of it to recreate my favourite...
I am considering converting the 350 scale entex Lusitania into the Mauretania. I would be grateful for any suggestions on matters that I should consider specifically relating to the conversion of the model itself. Or indeed if this conversion is not practical.
I am aware of some of the...
Hi,
I saw in an academic library catalogue last year, an entry for a book that gave a lot of detail of the current whereabouts of Mauretania's relics. I had been published in the 2000s and the synopsis gave a large number sites and the author clearly had done a lot of research.
Do any of...

Anybody knows how Mauretania's funnels were painted during her hospital ship service? A lot of sources states that they were left in Cunard red with black tops, and the photographs taken during that period are too dark to give exact informations.
Thanks in advance

Hi All,
I could not sleep so I played around with this Mauretania construction photocard I have. I had it scanned at a good size and re-exposure and with a little further Photoshop it looks fairly good. The protective coverings are in place on the props and the people looking around provide...
Hello again Eric, by word of mouth from an Antique dealer I was pointed to a second-hand
store owner, who used to collect Ocean Liner memorabilia. He took me down to his basement and showed me an original photo which he thought was Lusitania, I corrected him and let him know it was Mauretania...
