Lovely rendering of the Leilani… she went through a few lives … probably the most successful as APL’s President Roosevelt.

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!

Super interior fold out  for the beloved Lurline. Just lovely Hawaiian graphics of lei’s intertwined around beautify color photos of the ship. Some of this furniture survived until the end of her life for the Greeks. A couple of little pin prick holes at the seam overlaps.

These APL award trophies are very well crafted and sinfully heavy. This one needs a little polish and love and will look right at home among other ship models. Beastly Heavy … you could cause injury with this …

Great little passenger list for the lovely intimate America with some minor bumps and signs of age.

Matson’s version of a deck plan was called a room plan and this one is a great post war plan for the Lurline. Now I have to Admit , Matson reused the name Lurline so many damn times I don’t know off the top of my head which 1930’s ship this was actually was originally. Great condition

I love these great deck plan booklets that AE did for their ships in the 60’s. These are sturdy and well done … love the graphics!
