I really enjoyed the Titanic exhibition, been to it twice, once in Las Vegas Nevada and the second was Long Beach, California. I always go to it when it is in town. I have a book collection from 1912 era, authentic postcards posted before the ship went down that are framed on my wall. I have a 3' model of the Titanic that I built. Most of the books are still packed away, I have some of the Olympic postcards and the likes. I am really hooked on the Titanic. The 100 year sinking is coming April 1912.

Here is a quick photograph of one of the postcards (did not want you to think I was pulling a Wizzard here).
