Titanic victim Masonic William Walker 1911 multiple signed New Jersey Lodge 124 document. William Anderson Walker signed Masonic Document from 1911. Also signed on the reverse by 90 grand masters. Born in England, he later emigrated to the United States with his wife, Frances. He owned a water proof manufacturing business and he was a Grand Master at the Masonic Lodge number 124 in East Orange, New Jersey. This is a Masonic document from that lodge which has been signed by Walker to the front and by 90 other past Masters and Grand Masters from the local area to the reverse. At the bottom of the rear someone, we presume one of the signers has added later, In memorium William Anderson Walker. Drowned April 15th 1912 SS Titanic. The dates of their positions have been annotated in pencil, back to 1879. We think this was signed at the memorial service held after the tragedy. A Really fascinating historical document and rare piece of both Masonic and Titanic memorabilia. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide. UK postage from £5.99, EU from £7.99, Rest of World from £9.99
