A gem in my collection is a triangular cut of aft grand staircase wood from the Titanic, from a larger piece that had been fashioned by Minia Crew member Mr. Parker into a picture frame..
I have a hunch several of the pieces in circulation- such as the ones sold at the Guernseys auction, and my piece, are all from the same section of wood-I think the Ship Of Dreams exhibit has a piece as well- Does anyone have a good idea how many pieces of Titanic grand staircase wood are out there? And roughly how large was the recovered piece before it was cut?
A clearly genuine piece recently popped up on Ebay- but sadly several blatently fake pieces have also surfaced- and sold....
