A short walkthrough of the 1st Class Smoking Room, now called the Royal Salon, onboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach. The paintings are done by Edward Wadsworth, famous for his "dazzle" camouflage inspired art. The fireplace was the only one to use coal onboard the ship. On each side of the fireplace were wooden carvings done by James Woodford, who also made a series of cast-bronze electric-light sconce fittings for the room as well, but were taken out post war when Cunard decided to lower the ceiling.
