EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a rare and intriguing collection of matchbooks from the Captain John Treasure Jones Archive, proudly presented by Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd. from Mary Evans Prints Online. The image reveals a meticulously arranged assemblage of Cunard matchbooks, each one a testament to the rich maritime history of the renowned shipping company. Captain John Treasure Jones, an enigmatic figure, is the proud owner of this unique archive. The collection includes not just single used matchbooks, but two original, unused cartons of Cunard folding matches. These matchbooks, bearing the iconic Cunard logo, transport us back in time to an era of luxury and elegance synonymous with the Cunard Line. The RMS Queen Mary and RMS Queen Elizabeth, two of Cunard's most iconic ships, are prominently featured in this collection. The matchbooks, with their evocative designs and intricate details, serve as miniature works of art, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and sophistication of Cunard's bygone era. The matchbooks in Captain Treasure Jones' archive are more than just simple utilitarian objects. They represent a connection to the past, a link to the golden age of transportation and travel by sea. Each matchbook tells a story of journeys undertaken, memories created, and the enduring allure of the open sea. This archive is a treasure trove for collectors, historians, and anyone with a passion for maritime history. The unused cartons of Cunard folding matches are a particularly rare find, adding to the value and intrigue of this remarkable collection.
