(20th Century Fox, 1997) This is one of the tickets created for the various scenes when Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) and the rest of the passengers are boarding the ship at the beginning of the film. Printed on the ticket, "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 prop ticket has been professionally mounted in a framed display by the J. Peterman Company. This piece comes with the original 20th Century Fox COA and the original J. Peterman shipping box. The frame measures about 11.25" x 10.25".
