This was #5 edition of the Paper for voyage 213 westbound and printed specifically for TC passengers.  There were 3 feather film in the Theater: Canyon Ambush at 10:15 am for the Kids and The Comancheros at 1:30, 4 and 10pm for the adults … lots of other activities as well! Includes crossword puzzle, news of the day, adverts. Nice little advert specifically for the SHOPS AT SEA … just incase you forgot something or wanted a souvenir of the voyage.  Great condition however, It has been folded and has a small rip on the bottom seam.

Theses Logan Reavis cut ways as some of my favorite ephemera form the ship … you wont find his name on this earlier edition … but that was corrected in later cutaways. Lots of info about the ship , including small B/W phots of some of the interior spaces … and of course a nice section covering her speed records and holding of the Hales Trophy. These are perfect for framing! There is a very small hole on one of the seam lines that manifests itself over the starboard kingpost forward. Printed in the USA (of course).

Nice early miniature deck plan … covering all classes. There is a little bit of yellowing to the paper … but in good condition. These larger early versions were replaced with standard sized folded deck plans within about a year or so.

An early concept view and a little “cartoony” … Some details like the mainmast and capped bridge wings were never part of the final design.  Good condition with a corner fold …  this card actually predates her entry info service … “Joining the America the summer of 1952”.

Nice Gala Dinner menu from 10/23/67 … these folks ate well! Persian Malossol Cavier, Breast of Pheasant, Filet Mignon and Candied sweet potatoes are but a few of the items available. Nice menu with some yellowing and toning noted to the paper.

Another very nice set of FC menus for a voyage in September 1966. The set includes: 9/16: Lunch and Dinner, 9/17 Lunch and dinner, 9/18 Lunch and Dinner,  9/19 Lunch and Gala Dinner and Finally Breakfast on 9/20. All of these have minor signs of use and age toning and are in above average condition.

Probably the most common view of the ship … absolutely used throughout her life. An early conceptual painted view … some details like the mainmast and capped bridge wings were never part of the final design.  Great condition.

Excellent glossy postcard … and one of my favorite views of the ship. Nice ship specs on the reverse side. Like new!

Super nice World’s Fastest Liner Post Card.  Someone must have picked this up as a souvenir!

One of my favorite Hotel QM souvenirs … is the printed booklet.  Lovely full color photos of the ships entry into LB harbor and covers a lot of her interiors. Lovely centerfold of the ship as well. Excellent condition.

Another favorite interior fold out for the lovely Sylvania. This includes 6 full color renderings of her public spaces … and 2 full color phots of passenger cabins.   the Sylvania’s interiors were a little less Modern and more traditional that the Ivernia and Saxonia … a move by Cunard taken from customer feedback . In good condition with a few signs of light wear at the seams and edges. Don’t miss this one!

The great little Mini Beal brochure … this one would have been from later in her career and it does not have the “Maiden Voyage” info printed on the cover. there is also a little info on the SS America covered on the last couple of pages. A good reference item for the 2 ships with wonderful Beal renderings

CP sent the Empress of France on this Third Annual Mediterranean Cruise in 1926 and this brochure covers that adventure in 85 pages of info, text, photos and some graphics. I just love the cover art  ..CP did an outstanding job with their brochures and advertising. There are about 15 photos dedicated to the ship and her interiors … many more to each destination. There are some cover scuffs and soiling, but overall good condition.

Very nice like new large format fold out for the Empress of Canada and the Empress of England. Filled with nice colored photos and lovely monochrome graphics … this does not disappoint! The buzzwords are Time, holiday and escape.. to name a few. Like new condition.

Probably the best brochure done for the CP Pacific Empress’s .. the cover art is outstanding and surrounded by gold. The inside reviews each ship in the service the Empress’s of Canada, Asia, Russia and special attention was lavished on the newest: Empress of Japan. The centerfold honors all 4 ships with beautiful profiles. It is truly a wonderful brochure for the ships and their route …. hard to come by ..especially in great condition.

Nice double sided cruise plan for the Empress of Canada … CP’s last flagship and Carnival Cruise lines first cruise ship. She is certainly my favorite post was CP liner, the plan is quite detailed down to the furniture. There is a little “rusty” discoloration to the plan on one of the sections

A very interesting CC form … certainly uncommon. Certainly in that era every company had some sort of credit card. I wonder of they had a bonus point program.

Lovely brochure for Empress Atlantic crossings dated 1966. Quite lovely with photos and line drawing graphics  .. like new condition.

Excellent sailing and fares booklet for the 1970 season.

Excellent color deck plan and cruise booklet for the 3 Sun line ships : Stella Maris 2, Solaris and Oceanis. These little Sun Line ladies were filled with great Luzzatti art .. they had beautiful Greek Inspired interiors (lots of pictures in this brochure) Excellent condition with lovely copper colored pages. NY,NY agency stamp. dated 1975

One of Bills newer picture books on CP ships … Chock a Block full of photos of CP’s post war Passenger fleet … used , but excellent condition.

Nice early Tourist deck plan for the Big U. I’m guessing USL had lots of Preliminary plans in stock and decided to use them up .. the ship was almost a year old by February of 1953.Printed on glossy stock and in good condition w/ Slight age toning to the paper.

Lovely 8×10 press photo of the Katherine moving at speed.

Excellent TC baggage tag … unused and like new!
