A rare menu from Titanic's second class restaurant is expected to fetch 13,000 dollars at an auction.

The postcard breakfast menu, which was sent by saloon steward Jacob Gibbon to his girlfriend in England, will go under the hammer alongside other Titanic memorabilia, at Henry Aldridge and Son auction house in Devizes, Wiltshire, the New York Daily News reported.

Auctioneer Andrew Aldridge said that second class menus from Titanic are incredibly rare, just a handful exist and there are just two dated April 11 1912.
