Leather Travel Bag
  • When this travel bag was found, it was filled
    with jewels, watches, coins and currency.
    Historians speculate the purser may have filled
    this bag with the contents of one of the safes,
    or perhaps a thief was looting the cabins as the
    ship was sinking. Leather survives very well at
    the wrecksite. A 3 stoned diamond ring was also
    found.

Deck Chair
  • Reverend Henry W. Cunningham was the minister
    aboard the Minia during the body recovery and was
    given the deck chair in recognition of his work
    with burial and memorial services.
  • One of his grandsons donated the chair to the
    museum.
  • It bears a carved five-pointed star, the emblem
    of the White Star Line.
  • This is one of the only intact chairs in the
    world that matches those visible in Titanic
    photographs.
