GRIPSHOLM: 1925 - Big 1935 cruise plan w/ deck plans & interior photos

Product Description

Swedish American Line - What better way to nab cruise passengers at the tail end of the Great Depression than by passing out an enormous and colorful brochure? This "Round the Sunny Mediterranean" brochure for a winter 1935 cruise opens to 34" by 40", or as big as a bath towel.

Exotic ports and sites are highlighted as the plan unfolds. But the "meat" for us ship buffs comes when fully open. Five color-coded decks are shown along with twelve interior photos. Notice the jaunty angle of the plans. This style must have a had a moment in the mid-1930s as jumbo-sized cruise plans for ships such as the AUGUSTUS also angled the decks.

Of course I am immediately attracted to the red cabins as they are "Suites de Luxe". In fact, I'd booked the block on A Deck near the bow as a refuge for my fellow time-travelers where we could yuck it up, snickering at quaint ways of our 1930s brethren. According to the extensive rates, it would cost around 280 guineas per person. I haven't a clue what that would be today.

Photos lining the sides show the Verandah Cafe, Lounge, Indoor Swimming Pool, the bedroom of our Suite de Luxe, sitting room of our Suite de Luxe, three other A Deck cabins, two B Deck cabins, a C Deck cabin, and a D Deck cabin. 

Fair-to-good condition with wear.
