Behind the Glass: TITANICa Corncob Pipe

Join us as we investigate the impressive conservation work involved in maintaining our collections.

Here, our guest conservator, Alex, examines a unique object from the Titanic.

Our TITANICa exhibition contains many objects relating to the White Star Line and Titanic. Here, we take a closer look at one of our loan objects, a corncob tobacco pipe that was recovered from an unknown passenger's luggage in 1987.
