Movie: Titanic (1997)
Category: Movie Prop
Description:
This is one of the tickets that Jack (Leonardo Di Caprio) wins from Sven in a poker game at the beginning of the movie. The ticket states "Third Class (Steerage) Passenger's Contract Ticket". Important to note is that the ticket image is actually a mirror image (reversed). Because the set had to face into the prevailing wind so that the smoke would blow the right way in the "at sea" scenes, the film had to be reversed for the Southampton dock scenes in order to get the ship the right way in relation to the dockside. Consequently, many notices, signs, and props were printed as mirror images so that the film could be "reversed".
This has been professionally mounted in a framed display by the J. Peterman Company. The frame measures about 11.25" x 10.25".
