Description: | Cabin interior on the passenger liner 'Olympic' (1911) showing a stateroom in Second Class accommodation on the starboard side of the Upper Deck (E Deck); it is numbered E89. This is the inner cabin of a tandem arrangement; the narrow alleyway providing access to a porthole is in the far corner. The outer cabin of this pair appears in negative G10780.
The principle of the 'tandem cabin' originated in the design of accommodation on a vessel owned by the Bibby Steamship Co Ltd. For this reason the term 'Bibby cabin' was also used.
See photocopies of general arrangement plans of the 'Olympic' (1911) in Cunard White Star Ltd collection.
