Queen Mary Items
We offer a variety of Queen Mary-related items, many of which we have created
and available exclusively through Trans-Oceanic. These are great ways to
show your appreciation of the last remaining ocean liner of the golden
age of transatlantic voyages.
Queen Mary
This is one of the more beautiful books ever about the Queen Mary. Author James Steele is a professor of architecture at the University of Southern California. He’s created something between a coffee table book and an overview of the ship. The book covers all the important aspects of the RMS Queen Mary in effective detail. Many rarely-seen photographs are included.
We contracted with the publisher for a special printing of this book after
it went out of print. We have copies on hand and they make great gifts.
Soft cover. 244 pages. $36.50 plus $6.50 shipping and handling.
The Little Book of Facts About the Queen Mary
We always used to have customers come into our shop on the Queen Mary and
ask, "Do you have just a little book of facts about the ship?"
And they held their fingers about half an inch apart. No such book exised,
so we wrote one. It is, literally, our best seller. The book includes a
number of lists about myriad details on the Queen Mary and has nearly four
dozen photographs and illustrations, many in color. There are sections
on the war years, HM Queen Mary, after whom the ship was named, and some
details on changes that were made in the ship after she came to Long Beach.
68 pages, 43 photographs and illustrations, 17 in color. $9.95 plus $4.50
shipping and handling.
The Queen Mary Funnel Mug
It's our original design (don't accept inferior imitations) and it's shaped
like a Queen Mary funnel--at an angle. But you can drink from it like a
regular mug. A fun item. $9.95 plus $5.50 shipping and handling.
Queen Mary Inflatable Boat
It’s whimsical. It’s fun. And it’s ours exclusively. It’s the Queen Mary
Blow-Up custom made for Trans-Oceanic. This high quality, durable blow-up
toy is 22 inches long, 7 inches high, and 4 inches wide. It says Queen
Mary across the bows and Liverpool across the stern, just like the real
thing. And it’s got three stacks. Makes a great gift, especially for the
Queen Mary aficionado who seems to have everything else related to this
wonderful ship. $9.95 plus $5.50 shipping and handling.
It was a historic day when Cunard held its first Meeting of the Queens and the Queen Mary and Queen Mary 2 were together for the first time. We have the largest selection of memorabilia from this event anywhere. Click the painting above to see our selection.
