Located in the National Maritime Museum which does not charge an admission fee and does permit non-flash photography, this neon sign lights up the words "tall ship" and "star" in a poem on one of the Museum's interior walls:
"I must go down to the seas again,
to the lonely sea and the sky,
and all I ask is a
tall ship and star to steer her by.
Sea Fever by John Masefield, 1902"
