Buyer's Premium:

Dating from the 1940’s/50’s this is a great souvenir propelling pencil from the RMS Queen Mary. Purchased on board this item is in a very good condition and is boxed.

[The Queen Mary’s creation and launch was nothing if not extraordinary and her story is rich with history, elegance and grandeur. From the time her construction began in 1930 in Clydebank, Scotland, the Queen Mary was destined to stand in a class all her own. Despite suffering economic setbacks during the Great Depression, which stalled construction on the ship for several years, Cunard Line spared no expense on building the Queen Mary – which was originally known as job #534.]
