CARIBBEAN CRUISE 1952

 

Fantastic video footage of a Caribbean cruise in the old s.s. Nieuw Amsterdam.

 

Well worth a viewing.

 

Also, by the same photographer, "BERMUDA HOLIDAY 1959" - cruising to Bermuda in the q.t.e.v. Queen of Bermuda.

 

Enjoy!

I had difficulty finding this.

 

To make it easier for anyone else who wants to see it here is the link

 

 

It is very long – about 55 minutes.

 

How do you know it is the Nieuw Amsterdam? I did not see a ship’s name anywhere.

As familiar to me as my own grandmother! Visited the ship many, many times in the 1960s and have made more than just a few paintings of her...see attached.
