These hard melamine tip trays were very common items in the 70’s and later and could be purchased onboard. Excellent condition.

Interesting Used Album for the lovely Homeric (ex Mariposa). One of my favorite vessels … she had such a nice long 2nd life with Homes Lines … and certainly raked in the cash for them. The cover of this album has the official rendering for the ship in the cover that appeared in many brochures and travel agency portraits. This has been used and there still are a few Homeric items inside. Most pages have some yellowing and tape residue left from items that have been removed. Perfect to Build your own Homeric Album.

Superb Lunch menu for the lovely flagship. Written in both Italian and English … the menu has over 50 culinary delights. Excellent cover art by Silvio Pollomi. About 2 years and 2 months later she would be on the bottom of the Atlantic

The text and information is written in 3 different languages: Italian, German and English: From 1979 when she joined the Costa fleet Excellent condition.

Probably the best brochure ever done for this later Home Liner … the SS Atlantic. Designed and based on the marvelous Oceanic of 1965. The interiors renderings are magnificent! These are somewhat hard to find … a few nicks to the cover.
