Watch List notes:

Small piece of rope fiber from the Mary Rose (1543) with small tag from The Mary Rose Trust inside an acrylic display. 171 grams, 3-3/8" x 2-1/2" x 1". Henry VIII's flagship Mary Rose, sunk in the Solent north of Isle of Wight, remains one of the most important monuments of nautical archeology, from its discovery in 1971 to its salvage in 1982, its hull and artifacts still on display locally and still being researched and conserved. Pieces of rope a lot scarcer than wood (see next lot). From the Mary Rose (1543).
