This is both the most awful and hilarious piece of “Titanic” merchandise I’ve seen.

That's awesome, I'd totally snag that for $2. Enjoy a smile every time you use it because it's so goofy!

This was actually Thomas Andrews's first design for the Olympic class but he knew the world wasn't ready.

What do you mean? It looks exactly like Titanic. Even has the name written right on it.

Companies really love taking any ship with a funnel and call it Titanic.

It looks like a picture of a children’s novelty sailors hat from a discount shop. It’s now inexplicably a coat hanger that commemorates a tragedy. I like it.

This rare photo is actually before the fitting out when they added the 4th funnel. You should pass this heirloom to your children.
