What a great deck plan for the Queen Frederica that includes onboard pictures and renderings. Chandris purchased NHAL from Home lines in the mid 60’s .. which brought their single ship, The Queen Frederica into their possession. She was designed by William Francis Gibbs as Matson’s first really big ship, the Malolo. This excellent deck plan was printed in June of 1966.

Nice little folder fold out for the MS Lucaya sailing from Miami to the Bahamas daily. The 4.5 hour round trip was only $19! Great item with a couple of scuffs and corner dents.

Home Lines did such marvelous deckplans in the 70’s .. and certainly this one does not disappoint! It is almost completely dedicated to the ship with colorful pictures and color coded plans on 8 double sided pages .. the center spread covers cabins and rates. A few scribbles and scuffs … but otherwise in great shape! The plan was issued 8/1/1974.

2 great items for the QAM: the first is a leaflet for the 1974 Bermuda cruises out of Baltimore and Philadelphia. This includes info on the Happy ship herself, room rates and onboard pictures (the guy in the black socks and shorts is a looker for sure). The deckplan is a little yellowed and the prior owner added several notes on various cabin rates.

The thrifty Regency folks had this printed on board for passengers to find their way around the ship. They would have been placed in your cabin info packet. The ship now rests on the ocean bottom.

Who doesn’t like baggage tickets? This one is in perfect shape and belongs in your collection! A nice paper item that was removed from her when she was laid up in Tampa.

Perfect condition ticket for early dining on embarkation day. I sure wish I would have cruised on her before the end. She now rests on the bottom of the ocean.

Lovely perfect sheet from the Regent Sea … but printed with all 3 ship names. The Regent Sea was my favorite of the three being the former Gripsholm. My good buddy got a stack of these sheets while she was in Tampa … she sank on the way to the breakers.

Great items for the Regent Sea …5 sheets of cabin stationery and an envelope. ALL in excellent shape … snail mail your ship friends! The romance of written notes is becoming a lost art. Pristine!

Excellent counter card for the Oceanic and Atlantic … showing the Atlanic being escorted by smaller watercraft. The Atlantic was the second to the last ship built for Home lines and joined the Oceanic in 1982. There were both eventually sold to Premier to become sister “starships”. This came from the amazing Braynard collection that covered all aspects of the maritime world.

Cute little vintage vinyl ID wallet from the Fair Princess. Flash your Captain Stubing, Julie McCoy or Bartender Issac mug shot at folks .. and off you go!

I know this came from the Regent Sea (ex Gripsholm), cause a buddy of mine tucked it in his pocket when he was onboard her in Tampa. Stainless steel … certainly not the silver service that would have been onboard during the Gripsholm days. Thanks goodness folks removed items while she was laid up in Tampa … She sank on the way to the breakers.

Nice modern cruising souvenir puzzle for the RCL. This is in “never opened” condition and shows one of the glorious white-hulled cruisers. Cute little item for Royal Caribbean. Meant as a gift …has an area  to be addressed and stamped .. and dropped in the mail!

Nice early framed print of the Norway done by marine artist James Flood. Certainly done before the suites were added topside … and the ship’s good “French” looks and superb lines were a bit compromised. The Norway arrived at Alang named “Blue Lady” and was cut up for scrap metal to fuel India’s growing economy. The print is in great shape .. a few nicks to the frame. *** shipping calculator may not be correct, I should quote***

Colorful folded multi-page brochure for the Britanis. This does include nice colored deckplans. This was from her 1993 Mexican Caribbean season. 5 nights, $399. She started life as a Maston liner … but after a long life with Chandris, she sailed white hulled and rusty from Tampa on her way to the scrappers.

Another fine pin dish from Royal Cruise Line. This one is still in it’s original box and wrapper! This was a gift for Ms Neta Kabney who stayed in cabin 9065. Excellent condition!

Great little souvenr dish … with a nice image of one of their ships … the Royal Odyssey. She spent many years sailing all over the globe. The dish is in great condition with no flaws.

NCL did everything in the 80’s to keep building their share of the cruise business …including having live Broadway shows. Hello Dolly! being one of the show onboard the Norway. This is a cute little souvenir program from one of those shows. In great shape!

A great in the package RVL scarf. I really loved the RVL ships … they had such nice modern lines. The scarf looks like it was never opened or worn… excellent condition! Still stylish for modern cruising!

MV Victoria: A nice travel agency counter card for this trendy little post war cruiser! She started life in the 30’s as a traditional looking motor ship for Union castle … and after war was gutted and rebuilt to become a gem of Italian modern design for Incres. The card is in great condition with bright colors!
