Thread: Cruise Memorabila

How many other "nuts" are out there. I keep my sign and sail card and just about every thing else that pertains to our cruise, including the model of the ship we have sailed on. I have a room that I keep all of the "stuff" in. Who else collects and what is your favorite "stuff"

I have many of the sign and sail cards from my cruises dating back to the late 90's. I do not have the old paper ones from before that.
I also have collected originally mugs and later changed to shot glasses from all the ports we have visited.
I do have a couple ship models and a couple wall plaques of ships.
We have 2 drawers of a file cabinet full of ship's daily programs and information on ports.

I am guilty of keeping all the paperwork from my cruises, I don't have any models but I do have a few prints of QE2 and one of QE2 and QM2

Oh and just about every book on QE2 there is plus ones on QE, QV and QM2

Good question!

My shipping collection:
bigger part of my things don't from ship onboard.
Ship models: Queen mary 2, Queen elizabeth 2, Titanic plastic kits, models from Revell.
Myshelf I had made the models: a sailing boat, Millboard cruise ship "Niimi", luxury yacht, little wooden model and now I build cruise ferry the silja europa model.-I never been on these ships and they don't memorabila things

I love to collect several pictures of ships from journals and newspapiers. I collect also Ship drawings, book about Titanic, photos of ships. , shipping journals and some stickers.

shipping post cards, booklets of ships, ship board cards-these things are memoabila things from ships where I had been.

I have saved virtually all my daily planners and if available I buy a hat pin of each ship. And I keep the room key. I have a model kit of the QM2 but haven't sailed on her, so it is not memorabelia (yet).

What are sign and sail cards ? That isn't the plastic room key is it ?

We collect cruise ship drinking glasses, from the nice glass sets to the cheap China made plastic ones.

Yepper...that's exactly what they are.

We have some key cards and some of the dailies, but not from all of our cruises.

Yes that is what I meant because you sign for everthing

I was thinking it was made of cardboard or paper. Wondered why a plastic key would be called a card. Then I realized I have a plastic credit card
