The booklet is titled Romantic Waikiki and it has space on the back side to put postage on it and places for addresses so it could be mailed like a postcard.

I put the 20 in there for a size reference. That was the days before statehood. I was there in 1959 when Hawaii became a state.

Shane Van Boening. Now in his 30's, the best pool player in the USA. Hell, a 3, he already had a bridge better than many I see.

It's actually Gina Lolobrigida....at one time referred to as the most beautiful woman in the world.

That pic is from the movie "BUONA SERA MRS. CAMPBELL"

Quote:
During World War II, an Italian villager (Gina Lollobrigida) befriends three American soldiers. Later, when unsure which of them fathered the daughter she has, she invents a dead captain named Campbell, declares herself his widow and accepts support checks from all three soldiers. Twenty years later, a reunion unexpectedly brings the three veterans -- and their wives and children -- back to Italy. Mrs. Campbell panics as she endeavors to keep her lively past from her daughter.

Definitely not Jill St John. But she was definitely one of the sexiest Bond girls.
