The scans should be considered as part of the description.


I have been collecting White Star and Cunard 3 & 4 funnel liners for more than 25 years sadly neither of my Sons have any interest in either my stamp or postcard collections so I am putting my toe in the water to assess the interest. Providing these are taken up I have Mauretania, Lusitania and Olympic as well as Liverpool, Southampton, Floating Dry Dock, Suevic as well as many large Bookpost and related hardware.
