Pirate Ship


Here's a nice colorful image of the Chicken of the Sea pirate ship...I forgot to date the scan, but I believe that it is from 1962. Not much to add except to say that I think it's purty. Some things look a bit askew (the trashcan, fer instance), maybe that's a lens issue!

I'd actually love to get a good look at the souvenir stand to the right. You can see a few hats on display, including a beanie that looks a lot like the one that Matterhorn1959 had on his site.

The postcard rack has lots of the foldout books facing us...there are probably some valuable cards on other parts of the rack! Maybe a nice E-7 (interior of the Nautilus), buy one for a nickel in 1962 and sell it for $80 in 2006!
