Some cool Children images:
Children’s Room – Mauretania
Image by Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums
The children’s dining-saloon and nursery on the shelter deck of the Mauretania, was decorated with paintings illustrating nursery ryhmes by the artist J. E. Mitchell of Newcastle.
The rocking horse would have been in high demand by the young passengers on board.
The Mauretania was built by the shipbuilders Swan Hunter and Wigham Richardson Ltd, at the Wallsend shipyard and was one of the most famous ships ever built on Tyneside.
