SILVER PLATED DINING TABLE SALT POT FROM THE UNION CASTLE LINE VESSEL THE WALMER CASTLE
From the Walmer Castle of the Union Castle Line this is an item dating from the 1920's/1930's. It is a silver-plated dining table salt pot which shows on the front the company houseflag and name of the ship. The item is in a good condition and a great find.
[The Union-Castle Line was a British shipping line that operated a fleet of passenger liners and cargo ships between Europe and Africa from 1900 to 1977. It was formed from the merger of the Union Line and Castle Shipping Line. It merged with Bullard King and Clan Line in 1956 to form British & Commonwealth Shipping, and then with South African Marine Corporation (commonly referred to as SAF-Marine) in 1973 to create International Liner Services, but maintained its separate identity throughout. Its shipping operations ceased in 1977. The vessel the Walmer Castle was sadly lost on the 21st September 1941 when it was bombed and sunk in the Atlantic while a convoy rescue ship.]
