This is a very thick brochure which folds out like a map. The back cover states that the date of issue was February 1938; reprint of June, 1937 issue. Inside are many photos and ship layout plans, most of which are difficult to scan. Here is a small peek inside:
The middle inside of the brochure is a full color painting of the Queen Mary. I tried to get as much of the photo as I could:
Maybe Madeline was dreaming of a voyage on the Queen Mary. Hope you enjoyed going back in time. As always, click on pics to enlarge.
I just saw your blog post on PW, and clicked on your site. What a GREAT find. I love reading about people's lives and the interesting things they keep and cherish. I have several papers from my maternal grandfather and my father. I always thought it was interesting that men saved articles, paper docs, ect. I will visit often, and thanks for honoring your MIL in this manner. It is a treat for all to see.
