An incredible survivor of the Titanic, kept in the pocket of First Class survivor Abraham Lincoln Salomon.
Among the Turkish Bath’s amenities was a weighing chair. An attendant would record the individual’s weight in stones and pounds, on a specially designed ticket, and hand it to the bather as a record they could keep.
Salomon survived in Lifeboat No. 1. While in the boat he scribbled in pencil the names of fellow First Class passengers Lady and Cosmo Duff-Gordon, and their maid, Laura Francatelli, which you can still faintly see on the ticket.
