Great photos Brian! I haven't seen those yet.. I have only seen those in the green Lusitania book, i forget the writers name at the moment.

 

[Steve Olguin]

Duh!! It's Bob Ballard's book "Exploring the Lusitania". Bought it aboard the Queen Mary in 96.

the image in the above link is the Mauretania's grand staircase, not many photos of that are around either.
the Mauretania had the dark wood panelling and dome whereas Lusitania had white wood and plaster and the barrel vaulted skylight
