Ben Line Bed Spreads // Mugs
I served on Ben Line vessels and also Atlantic Drilling and am now looking to finish off a ships cabin in my home with some finishing touches, i.e. Ben Line Bed Linen, bunk bed size and cups or mugs, or any other Ben line marked items.
If you know of any or where I can purchase I would be grateful.
(must have been too honest at sea 
)
cheers,
Dennis Clark

I wonder if most of us were pretty honest while at sea? Never occured to me to pick up a few souvenirs such as the odd bit of gear with the co. logo on it, but with hindsight I wish I had. Cheers, from the still sundrenched North East, Albi.

Hi cheers for that,
I did get a set of Ben Line Containers Matchboxes the other year from e-bay, but have never seen any other items
I guess I would have more chance up some back street in Hong Kong or Penang, lol
