It is a double oversized postcard that also features the Ports o Call restaurant in San Pedro. Here is the back of the card that provides a numbered description of each photo so you can keep score! The close ups of The Reef card. First up, an exterior shot of the entrance. Close up of the Tiki. Next, the Tiki Lounge (I don't see any Tikis though?) The Tonga Room (where have I heard that name before?) The Polynesian Luau area that accommodates 1,500 people? And views of the SS Princes paddle wheeler and the Long Beach skyline. Here is a nice rendering of the building from the back of the card. It looks like they may actually have had the row boat and anchor in the ground out front as shown on the menus. A map showing both The Reef and the Ports o Call. And finally the description on the back of the card. I posted the other part of the card in the Ports o Call thread. http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic=35858&forum=2&start=15&hilite=ports o call What a beauty! DC
