The Love
Boat - Pacific Princess Cruise Ship Model
This
is a plastic replica of the Love
Boat, the real cruise ship Pacific Princess.
It's
not a model kit per se, but it's TV related, and interesting.
I believe some of these may have had a sticker sheet, but
I am not sure. This is more of a replica to put on a desk
or just display. It is about 11 inches long.
It
is only one piece, and there are no "directions".

Island - Fantasy Island is a resort, where there is very little
that the host, Mr. Roarke cannot provide. Thus we have visitors
have adventures in fantasies that should be impossible, but this
island can accommodate them such as visits to any time period
they want, meet absolutely anyone they see to do something they
request such as getting William Shakespeare to write a play for
them.

Boat - Love is in the air...Well, not only in the air but
also in the sea! Passengers who search for romantic nights aboard
a beautiful ship traveling to tropical or mysterious countries,
decide to pass their vacation aboard the "Love Boat"

best to please them and sometimes help them fall in love. Things
are not always so easy but in the end love wins and everybody
leaves the dreamboat satisfied.
CRUISE
SHIPS: An Evolution in Design - Since the earliest commercial
cruises offered in the 1840s, cruise ships have changed beyond
recognition and evolved into one of the world's most sophisticated,
specialized, complex, and expensive types of vessel. This astonishing
development is the subject of this book. While the origins of
the story can be traced back in part to the nineteenth century,
the author takes up the story in detail with the large, modern,
purpose-built cruise ships of the 1930s. The prototypes for a
mass-market clientele emerged in the German KdF ships Wilhelm
Gustloff and Robert Ley. At the other end of the scale, the exquisite
1927 Norwegian-built cruise yacht Stella Polaris represents the
prototype of a smaller vessel offering the ultimate in luxury.
In the post-war years both ends of the industry have expanded
dramatically, and the myriad of ships which have been built, and
are being built, are described in detail. Philip Dawson developed
an interest in merchant and passenger ships in early childhood.
He started writing on shipping and ship design in the early 1980s.
He is author of British Superliners of the Sixties: A Design Appreciation
of Oriana, Canberra and QE2 and the highly successful tribute
to the PandO cruise liner Canberra: In the Wake of a Legend.
