ALCOA CAVALIER, CLIPPER & CORSAIR - 1955 interiors & deck plan brochure w/ delightful illustrations

Product Description
Alcoa Line: A sixteen-page Caribbean cruise brochure from 1955  for the streamlined trio ALCOA CAVALIER, ALCOA CLIPPER, and ALCOA CORSAIR.

The three passenger decks are rendered in that wonderful isometric, or 3-D, style that made French Line plans from the 1930s so desirable. The furniture in cabins and public rooms cast little shadows. I feel like that with a flick of my finger I could scoot a chair out of the way or rearrange the Lounge.

Color interior photos show four cabins, Main Hall, Dining Room, Lounge, and Bar. The design is a handsome post-war streamlined.

A humorous series of five illustrations by famed American illustrator R. John Holmgren (1897-1963) follow the exploits of three passengers - an elderly and obviously wealthy gentleman, his beautiful blonde companion, and a dashing young man with a wandering eye. By the end of the sequence the old gent has been dumped and the lass is diving into the pool with the hunk. It all seems rather risqué for an era when CBS didn't dare allow married couple Lucy and Ricky to sleep in the same bed.

Very good condition.
