Dr. Sean MungerHow about some #staterooms? This is a super rare color photo of a first class cabin aboard Cunard's RMS Aquitania, launched in 1914. She was known as the "ship beautiful." Amazing detail, but the furniture placement is extremely odd. Roll out of bed and onto the sofa? I don't get it. But still, this is a gem of a pic! #oceanliners
Andrew McPhee@seanmunger She was a beautiful liner. My neighbour worked for his father's joinery business and went up to Faslane when she was broken up in the 1950s. Said her carpentry was stunning - they took panels from her which then furnished a pub in Rutherglen, I believe. He felt it was a kind of vandalism to break her up.
@AndrewMcPhee That personal connection is very interesting!
