Geoff,

I may be able to save you some time and trouble. I think we probably both have the same postcard:

I've actually corresponded with the photographer who took the picture (that's his wife doing the modelling) and will probably turn the postcard over to him since he has emotional attachment to it.

Evidently the owners of the resort discovered that photos of girls in bikinis drew tourists, because here's a later brochure, (I'm guessing from the 1970s?) that's cool and cheesy:

Finally, (and I apologize to the Florida collectors for hogging all this ephemera, but darnit, I love this place), Here are some window decals. These would be cool to reproduce (can't you picture them on an old 1960s VW bus side window). Does anyone know how one might go about producing some window decals using this old art?:

Thanks for getting this topic started, TikiGardener. I've been wanting to photograph this stuff for a while.

Sabu
