Hello.
I have a wanted luggage label filled in by a passenger (survivor) of the Titanic, Miss Ed Appleton.
Acompnying the label is a picture, lock of hair and a half penny.
My understanding is that these labels were afixed to luggage that was needed on the crossing? I thought that only one piece of luggage was documented leaving the ship (please correct me if I'm wrong)!?
I have no idea of its provenance.
My Dad picked up a box of 'frames and stuff' from an auction a few years ago. This was in amongst them. Just found it when moving my parents into a new home.
If anyone could enlighten me further on the matter I would be most grateful.
