Just scored this great postcard from the Ports o Call restaurant in San Pedro. It is a double oversized postcard that also features the The Reef restaurant in Long Beach.

The back of the card provides a description of each photo.

Some close ups.

An exterior photo of the entrance with the lake. You can see a rickshaw standing at wait. Wonder if they borrowed that idea from the Islander restaurant in LA?

The Albatross Bar and Cocktail Lounge that looks like an old ship (borrowed from Steven Crane's Kon Tiki Ports White Cloud).

The Tahitian dining room.

Love those dark Tikis.

Next, the Waikiki Ballroom.

The last photo is actually from the SS Princes ship that docked at Ports o Call and must have traveled to Long Beach as it is featured in The Reef card as well.


A rendering from the back of the card.

A map showing both Ports o Call and The Reef locations.

And finally the description on the back of the card.

I posted the other part of the card in The Reef thread.
