RMS Titanic Black & Gold Cap Tally From Belfast Titanic Gift Shop Online

The Titanic - RMS Titanic Cap Tally.



The Titanic Cap Tally is long so as to wrap around the Crewman's Cap.

Gold " RMS TITANIC " woven on black cloth making it stand out much better.

The tally in this image has been chopped so as to show off the " GOLD PRINT ".

Most suitable for a collector's item for the Titanic enthusiast.

This item will be packaged with great care and shipped securely worldwide direct from Belfast the birthplace of Titanic !.

General Information on the Cap Tally.

The tally on a sailor's cap is a ribbon usually bearing the name of a ship or some other establishment to

which he belongs.

Practice varies with each navy, though a conventional tally is black, with a gold or yellow inscription. The

inscription may be simply a ship's name (e.g. "H.M.A.S. ARRERNTE"), the name of the navy

("MARINE NATIONALE").

The manner a tally is fastened onto the cap varies with each navy. For example, the British tie it into a bow

on the left side; the Germans and Russians tie it at the back, leaving behind a pair of streamers; while the

French stitch it onto the cap like an ordinary cap band.

Occasionally the tally's colour may vary from the usual black (such as the Ribbon of Saint George tallies

used in the Soviet and Russian navies to denote Guards units).

RMS Titanic was a passenger liner that struck an iceberg on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York City, and sank on 15 April 1912, resulting in the deaths of 1,517 people in one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history.

The largest passenger steamship in the world, the Olympic-class RMS Titanic was owned by the White Star Line and constructed at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland. After setting sail for New York City on 10 April 1912 with 2,223 people on board, she hit the iceberg four days into the crossing, at 11:40 pm on 14 April 1912, and sank at 2:20 am the following morning.

The high casualty rate resulting from the sinking was due in part to the fact that, although complying with the regulations of the time, the ship carried lifeboats for only 1,178 people. A disproportionate number of men died due to the "women and children first" protocol that was enforced by the ship's crew.

Next year all over the world people will remember the sinking on 10 April 1912. Here in Belfast there has been a great deal of work where Titanic was built in what is now known as THE TITANIC QUARTER. When completed for the Anniversary there will be a Museum and in this will be a floor furnished just as Titanic was and it is expected this will be used by happy couples wishing to get married there. All this helps to keep the Titanic story alive throughout the world.
