I have recently acquired a number of Items of Titanic Memorabilia relating to Thomas Mullen or Mullin, a Dumfries Man who was a Third Class Steward on the Titanic and who perished in the Disaster. His body was later recovered by the Minia and I have recently taken possession of his personal effects which were recovered from his body after the sinking namely
1) Whitestar Line Stewards Cap Badge (No 32)???? made of bronze with White Star Pennant impressed on reverse.? I wonder what the 32 refers to??
2) His broken silver pocketwatch
3) His Leather notepad Cover.(Is this a Whitestar item/ Standard Issue, It is unmarked as far as I can see ?
4) Post sinking Titanic Postcard sent to his family on the 20th April 1912 at 7 Observatory Terrace, Dumfries (Postally used only 6 Days after the sinking)
5) Rememberance Card with Titanic Poem on Reverse
6) 1912 Titanic Poem (very ragged held together with tape, one section missing.)
I wonder if you can give me any further information on Thomas Mullen or Mullin , or any of the items I have.
Thanks
