BIM2020.005.379Description
Three copies of a color postcard of the Reuben E. Lee restaurant taken from an elevated position on the shore. Shows the entrance side of the boat and both restaurants, the Seafood Restaurant and the Sternwheel Cookhouse. There is a third gangway that appears to be a staff entrance. A small trolley, either a model or an electric golf cart, is positioned between the gangway for the Sea Food Restaurant and the staff gangway. All three have scalloped edges.
All unused. Published Donna Rae Hancock in Huntington Beach. There is a blurb on the back about the restaurant, citing length (189'6"), Height (65'), and Width (52'6"). It weighed 900 tons. The owners are listed as Far West Services, Inc. at this time. Print number 54012-C. Two cards list the printer as Dexter press and the third has no printer listed, though it was likely printed by Dexter Press as well.Subject
