About this Department

Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd are the World's leaders in the sale of Titanic Liner memorabilia. Described by Stanley Lehrer the owner of the worlds largest collection Titanic Memorabilia as the "Leading source of high end ocean liner collectibles in the world". We hold the world record for the most valuable item of Titanic memorabilia sold at auction, £1.1 million for the Wallace Hartley Violin, the most valuable item of paperwork relating to the Titanic, a 32ft long Titanic enquiry plan at £220,000 and the most valuable collection of memorabilia relating to a Titanic crewman at over £350,000. Our expertise has been utilised by leading media outlets globally and the worlds largest museums. We hold two dedicated auctions a year with bound printed catalogues that collectors value as much for research as for the auctions themselves. We also have extensive experience handling material from other liners such as RMS Olympic, RMS Britannic, RMS Lusitania, RMS Queen Mary, RMS Empress of Ireland and the White Star Line and Cunard and are happy to handle single items to major collections either in the UK or globally.
