A cigar box once owned by the captain of the Titanic has been discovered gathering dust on a bedroom cabinet. It was spotted by an auctioneer. Hilary Mee says it was lying in her house for 20 years and she did not even know!
The White Star shipping company emblem and the captain's initials adorn the cigarette box ^
Overall, I thought this was pretty cool! Something so iconic was recently being found is really awesome. I would want to own this because I am a fan of the Titanic. The movie is great and I just think it's sweet that this is still out there.

That's really cool and how can people find these items there were in the sea for over decades? wouldn't this rot and buried under the sea?
I wonder if there were an cigars left?! Hopefully they were Cubans. And I don't think that the box was in the ocean it was probably at his house and then moved. I hope they put it in a museum, or it goes to a collector.
