These are the first post cards issued by the City of Long Beach following
Queen Mary's arrival. The four cards show the ship at sea along the California
coast during her Last Great Cruise, arriving in Long Beach Middle Harbor,
docking at Pier E, and docked. These are rare collectibles of the time
when the great liner began her new lease on life.

Queen Mary Inflatable Boat
It’s whimsical. It’s fun. And it’s ours exclusively. It’s the Queen Mary
Blow-Up custom made for Trans-Oceanic. This high quality, durable blow-up
toy is 22 inches long, 7 inches high, and 4 inches wide. It says Queen
Mary across the bows and Liverpool across the stern, just like the real
thing. And it’s got three stacks. Makes a great gift, especially for the
Queen Mary aficionado who seems to have everything else related to this
wonderful ship. $9.95 plus $5.50 shipping and handling.
The Queen Mary Funnel Mug
It's our original design (don't accept inferior imitations) and it's shaped
like a Queen Mary funnel--at an angle. But you can drink from it like a
regular mug. A fun item. $9.95 plus $5.50 shipping and handling.
The Little Book of Facts About the Queen Mary
We always used to have customers come into our shop on the Queen Mary and
ask, "Do you have just a little book of facts about the ship?"
And they held their fingers about half an inch apart. No such book exised,
so we wrote one. The book includes a number of lists about myriad details
on the Queen Mary and has nearly four dozen photographs and illustrations,
many in color. There are sections on the war years, HM Queen Mary, after
whom the ship was named, and some details on changes that were made in
the ship after she came to Long Beach. 68 pages, 43 photographs and illustrations,
17 in color. $9.95 plus $4.50 shipping and handling.
