SECOND-CLASS SMOKING ROOM

 

Located on the Bridge or B-deck above the second-class Library, this male-only smoking bastion was paneled in carved oak. The furniture, also of oak, was upholstered in dark green Moroccan leather to further add to the masculine air. 

The floor was laid with linoleum tiles (00/0306), the latest in 1912 floor covering, and tucked aft on either corner of the room were a bar for spirits and a lavatory for the passengers' comfort after imbibing in those spirits.  Majolica lights (94/0062), visible in the photograph at left, illuminated the space and most probably the hands of the card players who used this room to while away the hours in a little friendly competition.
