Crane Manufacturer's Identification Plate

This drawing shows the text found on the crane manufacturer's identification plate for Titanic. The reason that this particular plate is specific for Titanic is the date. I contacted Stothert and Pitt in Bath a couple of years ago inquiring about the date on their ID plates. I was told that the date indicates the delivery date. Titanic would have been fitting out in 1911 when her cranes were delivered. Olympic's cranes had "1910" as their date
