The Sale of the 'Rattletrap s' Mess Kit: A Glimpse into Naval Life in 19th Century Asia". This photo print, titled "The Sale of the 'Rattletrap s' Mess Kit" takes us back to a bustling room aboard a ship in 1894. The engraving, created by Alexander Stuart Boyd, offers a vivid illustration for The Graphic magazine. In this scene, we witness an alarming sight as numerous items from the mess kit are up for sale. The foreman and his representatives eagerly examine each article with critical eyes while potential buyers carefully deliberate over their purchases. Shattered dreams and despair fill the air as members of the mess committee reluctantly part ways with their cherished belongings. Amongst the chaos, Wong Hing gladly presents a china bowl and sugar tongs for inspection. Nearby, Chinese carpenters stow away family rice bowls and other mess property that once brought comfort to these sailors during their voyages. As street scenes pass by outside, relations between crew members grow chummy over soup tureens and sociable drinks. Duty calls as lockers are emptied and commences pay homage to new owners who will find fitting use for these treasured pieces. The image captures not only the sacrifice made by those selling off their beloved possessions but also serves as a signal of changing times within naval life in Asia. It reminds us that even amidst transportation across oceans on rattletrap boats or modes of transport like passenger ships, traditions remain deeply rooted in Asian culture. Overall, this print provides an intriguing glimpse into history - one that sheds light on both personal stories and larger societal shifts within combat units at sea during this era.
