Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 3/4″ ad for the Moore-McCormack Lines. This ad contains two photos; the top one says “This is the kind of fun you have” and the bottom one is “This is one of the sights you see”. In the top photo it shows everyone casually dressed and smiling as they are all preparing plates of food from a table in the middle of the ship’s deck. This says “Imagine, lunching on deck! In the southern waters, the sea’s so blue and so smooth. And does that salt air give you an appetite. Mooremack chefs treat you to the most amazing assortment of delicious food…including rare roast beef, back-home style – and a selection of exotic South American dishes. Eating on deck with interesting new friends is one of the things you’ll enjoy most about your Mooremack cruise”. In the bottom photo we see people who have seen that “You’ll go up Sugarloaf by cable-car, look down to see lovely Rio with red-roofed houses, dazzling white apartments nestling among green hills. The sea is dotted with island monuments. The air is so clear you’ll see swimmers splashing in the surf miles away. Far to the left, behind the crescent of Copacabana beach, is Corcovado Mountain and the famous 128-foot statue of Christ. Your Mooremack Cruise Director has arranged for you to motor up to see it”. The information at the bottom of the ad says “S.S. Argentina…S.S. Brazil…38-day cruises to South America from $1,100. These 33,000-ton liners sail every 3 weeks from New York to Trinidad, Barbados, Bahia, Rio de Janeiro, Santos (Sao Paulo), Montevideo, Buenas Aires. See your travel agent for details”.
