A launch ticket for the Titanic is put into a case at Bonham's auction house in New York April 10, 2012. A rare original launch ticket that could sell for up to $70,000 will be the highlight of an auction in New York of Titanic memorabilia to mark the centennial anniversary of the ill-fated voyage, Bonham's said on Tuesday. The ticket, which has its perforated admission stub still intact, would have allowed its holder to the launching and christening of the Titanic. [Photo/Agencies]
