This menu was for a children’s party held on board the SS Carthage. The SS Carthage was part of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company (P&O) fleet, which was one of the prominent shipping companies in the 19th and 20th centuries that offered steamer services for mail, cargo and passengers. On this occasion, the SS Carthage was headed for Singapore from London.
