Nice log card for voyage 331 in 1966. Interestingly, Ridington was in charge for this voyage … the Commodore must have needed some time off. Good condition with minimum wear. Looks ,like some rougher seas on several of the days brought her average speed to be 29.58 knots.

Wonderful miniature deck plans for the Big U … printed on medium card stock. Each side has top to bottom deck plans and contains a good selection of B&W interior photos. Very good condition … thought a tiny bit yellowed.

USL always did nice publicity items for the SSUS … and these deck plans are pure proof. Printed on glossy paper, this contains super color-coded plan and excellent full color photos … the tourist class dining room is stunning… Great condition. Not dated but form other I have had, I’d say this is about mid 50’s.

All the plans done for the SSUS were done very well … these will not disappoint. Nice colors and good-sized color photos of cabins and public spaces. Like New condition. A must have for a serious collector!

Great Gala Menu dated June 9. 1962. Lots of good food … Captain Alexanderson in charge. A small stain inside … could be a spot from wine.

Super lot of menus … 3 Breakfast and 4 luncheon from a voyage in November of 1954. These folks ate very well. In nice clean used condition.

So famous was the SSUS when she was launched, many manufacturers capitalized on her image and story. This needle packet is almost complete and bears a cartoony image of the mighty ship! IT Sparkles!

Lovely Breakfast and Luncheon Menu set from August 1952 .. the ship had seen only about 6 weeks of service! These menus are in great shape and a testament to the culinary delights served aboard our Nations flagship.

I Love these SSUS Gala Menus!  The artwork is vibrant and the menu selections are just mouth watering. John Anderson was in charge of the ship of course..

I Love these SSUS Gala Menus!  The artwork is vibrant and the menu selections are just mouth watering. Put on your own SSUS dinner! The ship was just a month or so under 3 years old.

A good solid mini deck plan for the Big U! It was folded oddly at one point and has a few edge blemishes so I’d judge it to be in average plus condition .. a good item for reference!

The BEST brochure ever done for America’ Proud speedy Flagship. Designed and filed with renderings by Lester Beal .. this is a world of 50’s graphic design at its best …24 pages of glory with an unforgettable centerfold of the ship that would make Hugh Hefner blush! Exceptionally Excellent Condition.

Probably the most detailed and through book on the “refit” of the Leviathan for passenger service. The Americans were certainly proud of this magnificent war prize that gave our nation our first giant flagship. WF Gibbs was on cloud nine as well. Packed with lots of historic info and filled with pictures and period ads etc. The cover has a little wear, a bit of the lower left hand side is detached from the binding.

Excellent copy of the best book ever written about the SS United States by impassioned author Frank O. Braynard. This is still the go to work on the ship from her (and WF Gibbs) early history to her sale to US Cruises in late 1979. Fancy wrapped dust jacket and excellent condition … I’m sure this was once someone’s cherished copy.

Great like new copy … this was a basic republication of FOB’s thriller “The Big Ship”, with some added text from Preservationists Robert Westover and Susan Gibbs. Susan is still fighting to save the vessel her grandfather designed and built! Please help join her …www.savetheunitedstates.org.  Excellent book!
