WESTLANT DEPLOYMENT
1976
HMS ARK ROYAL
Privately produced postcard for the HMS HERMES crew
I loved this card when I saw it, and it was just £1, which I considered to be a bargain. It seems that this postcard was produced, possibly even onboard the ship itself, for a certain deployment in the US in the year 1976, which was also the year of the bicentenary of the American Revolution, as shown by the logo which is repeated across the front of this postcard design. My copy here was sent by a member of the crew, a pilot, and he states that he flew the dark aircraft that can be seen on the ship in this photograph (I am no aircraft expert, but they may be Blackburn Buccaneer’s which I know were stationed onboard HMS Hermes). I think this could be quite a scarce postcard.
REVERSE SIDE OF ABOVE POSTCARD
The writer says that the photograph used here was taken in the October of the year before in the North Sea, so it seems clear he had a good knowledge of the aircraft carrier and its movements around that time. The 21 cent UNITED STATES AIR MAIL stamp has been cancelled with a ‘FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA 333’ machine cancellation dated 18t May 1976.

ST FRANCIS HOTEL
UNION SQUARE, SAN FRANCISCO
Official Hotel Postcard
(Unknown Printer)
Before I went away on my trip I scanned a handful of postcards to place on the webpage if I had internet access. As it happened I had no access through out my San Francisco stay, but this postcard was to be used if I had. By some amazing coincidence, because I had not looked them up prior to my holiday, this is the actual hotel we stayed in! How about that for a coincidence. Amazing. This just goes to show how the postcard world can wrap around the real world. This is an older postcard and the message on the reverse side of this copy seems to date it from 1971. There is now a tower block addition to the hotel which now stands behind the left side of the hotel as it appears in this image. It was in this tower that we stayed.
So, what was once a simple cheap postcard I picked up from a cheap box because I quite liked the image is now another reminder of my recent holiday.
PHOTOGRAPH
One of my own photographs of our hotel, which is now correctly called the HOTEL WESTIN ST FRANCIS. The tower block at the back can clearly be seen here. The front section still remains the same though.

This is a modern interpretation of a long running American tradition of the illustrated letters of a location across a postcard. Although no longer unique to America this type of card is a uniquely American idea and creation, now copied by a range of other countries, but never bettered. My copy here was again posted in the UK as a competition entry card, this time in 1994 (for a ‘Take That’ competition).

This postcard was actually-posted in the UK in 1993 as a competition entry card, but it is a little older than this. We spent a day in Los Angeles and had a nice tour of the city with the traditional view of the HOLLYWOOD sign and the Chinese theatre etc. We saw many of the tall buildings as we left the city on our way to the Queen Mary (see below entry), but I don’t think they are the cities best attraction, although they do look good here on this postcard.

Ref: 5:SF-17 ½ A
The last location on our holiday tour was San Francisco and his gave me the opportunity to see the famous Alcatraz Island. You can clearly see the island from the mainland and I saw it often when I was touring around. I also got a nice close-up look when a ferry I was on travelled close to the island on its trip back from Sausalito (a beautiful location).
The Island of Alcatraz was of course a prison, one which was closed by Robert F. Kennedy in 1963. I wonder if this postcard was issued in the period just after, or around the closure of the prison as the joke about the island being for sale would have been relevant and funny at that time, also the reverse side would fit this period of publication.
REVERSE SIDE OF ABOVE POSTCARD
I do like these American postcards with their little drawings of local landmarks and tourist attractions down the far-left side. You can find different postcards from different areas with, obviously, different images placed here.

Publisher – Printer details not recorded
Ref: A. 2911
Well, I’m back in the UK after my three weeks in America. The last 5 to 6 days were manic, and there was no wifi access during the crazy miles and stops covered during this period, so there were no webpage postings for a while, but the facebook page had some interesting posts.
One highlight of this last section of my holiday was an overnight stay on the RMS Queen Mary, now permanently moored as a hotel in Long Beach, California. I am a massive fan of the old ocean liners and their history, and as you know I collect RMS Titanic material, especially postcards, and the Queen Mary is the last of these large majestic historical liners that you can still visit. I spent many hours exploring the ship, looking into all the little areas and finding out as much history as I could.
This postcard looks a little strange because the image is printed on a gold foil/shiny surfaced card, although to be more precise it is a matt gold surface which reflects light rather than a true shiny (Duflex styled) card. This is an early example of such an issue and is contemporary to the running of the Queen Mary.
REVERSE SIDE OF ABOVE POSTCARD
This card appears to have been used by a person, or a company as there is added text applied which reads:
For further particulars apply
A. Pearse Jenkin, Alma Place, Redruth, Cornwall
I wonder what ‘particulars’ this advertisement referred to? I have found a reference to a land agent called Pearse Jenkin in Redruth who was the son of an Alfred Jenkin who died in 1872. So, could it be that this person, or even one of their relatives, named after the late Alfred Jenkin is the person who used this card as a company advert card.

This was posted in 1977 from CAREFREE (what a great name for a location) Arizona. The stamp, a 21cent airmail, has been cancelled with a CAREFREE AZ large circle cancellation dated 1st August 1977. This was sent to somewhere called BRASSCHAAT which is a municipality in Belgium and upon arrival has received a BRASSCHATT single circle cancel dated 11th August 1977, which means this took ten days to make the trip, which seems like quite a lot even for the 1970’s. Nice clean and clear usage though.

I had scanned this postcard before I left home in preparation for todays posting. Unfortunately, the only things I saw from this selection were Prairie Dogs, deer and vultures, but the other critters would have meant a slower and more careful movement through the miles we travelled today. Still a cracking postcard though.

One of the more unusual of this museum’s recent postcard issues. Text on the reverse side refers to this as a poster design but there is no front text on the poster itself. I wonder if it was a piece of artwork which was commissioned but eventually not used, which might explain why no year is given in the descriptive text for when the design was painted or used. I like this one because it is so different from the other poster designs produced by this museum.

I have a few of these designs by Jenny and I like them a lot. They have a sort of nostalgia about them which clearly appeals to the general-public as these postcards can be found being sold up and down the UK in many locations, including my home town (although the company itself ceased producing postcards last December). The combination of images used here is very good and eye catching, especially with the inclusion of the old Ice Cream van, although I say old, but the one that still drives around my area still looks like this one.
For my readers from other countries who may not know what a ‘99’ is I shall explain as to UK readers of a certain age it is iconic. It is an ice cream cone with a chocolate flake stuck in it, something you can get from all UK ice cream vans.

(Text from reverse side of postcard)
I have mentioned before my love of this ride (But to quickly recap, it was because as a child I loved all things wildlife themed, and every bank holiday in the UK came with the showing of a new ‘Disney’ programme where a UK celebrity would go to the theme park and film segments there which showed bits and pieces of the various rides, characters and other park aspects. I loved this programme and through watching it fell in love with the idea of the Jungle Cruise ride), I ride it every time I visit Walt Disney World. I also try on every visit to try and photograph this face statue, but I fail on almost every trip, so it was nice to find this old postcard on a dealer’s stall which depicts it. It is located just before the boat goes into the tunnel area.
REVERSE SIDE OF ABOVE POSTCARD
This has the very early, first in fact, Walt Disney World logo heading across the top, which I believe places the issue of this card in the 1970’s, possibly early 1980’s (but I am going with the 70’s). The printing is in blue, which I think is attractive and there is a little toucan logo at the bottom of the central dividing line (I think this is reference to the ‘Tikki Tikki Room’ attraction, which is located in the ‘Adventureland’ area).
