Wonderful door with two sides of the frame attached from cabin M308 (as per workman's imprint in frame. The brass handles may be from 1955 or from the ship's FRANCONIA refit in 1962.

This is one of just a handful of cabin doors rescued from the ex IVERNIA at Alang and comes with two sides of its frame. Like most doors from the ship, it is slightly obtuse with compensation for sheer and camber.
