British auctioners are offering a first class menu from the Titanic's last lunch, an item they claim offers a unique window on the doomed ship's Edwardian splendor.
The menu, kept by a prominent San Francisco banker, bears the date April 14, 1912 that the unsinkable cruiser hit an iceberg and fell to the bottom of Atlantic.
Devizes, England-based auctioneer Henry Aldrige & Son says that the menu is one of the rarest items of Titanic memorabilia to be sold and expects it to fetch upto 1,00,000 pounds.
Among the 40 options on the historic menu: Chicken a la Maryland and Consomme Fermier.
