Hawaii - Don the Beachcomber's Luau


This card leaves me speechless. What could I possibly add to this?

  1. What a wonderful postcard of happy days from the past.

  2. I'm pretty sure these folks inhabited the island next to the one Gilligan and crew were stranded on, but it looks like they weren't too worried about being rescued!

  3. It's a classic. Are we late 50s or early 60s? It is the look on those faces which is the real treasure.

  4. Alan,
    You're right on target as to the time. I don't think it was before 1959, but I also don't think it was much later than 1963. Zip codes were introduced in 1963, so later cards by Mike Roberts included the zip, though there may well have been some lag time.
