Hello to the groupe Ive add 25 pics i found through my searching the net. the album is titled "Life magizene Qm pics" theres a nice color pic of the normandie...
Sadly, the original QUEEN MARY piano did, indeed, go with the QE2 to Dubai as part of her sale. All items on board were part of the sale. Why Cunard didn't...
Lee, Amazing photos. I've never seen pictures of the Swimming Pool or the OB during WW2 that were that vivid. And the color photo of the Normandie floating at...
I love the QM/Normandie colour pic too, I used it in my book on Queen Mary's First Decade, and again in Volume 5 of my Normandie series. The picture in the...
The City of Long Beach says it has completed an inventory of capital assets on the Queen Mary. See the agenda item and staff recommendations that will be put...
The number of fixed assets that are apparently actually tracked on the Queen Mary by the City of Long Beach is 193. This number comes from Craig Beck's letter...
Hi Bill, Thanks for posting the link to the city summary on the inventory. My focus has been on other things on board, but I was curious what the status on...

Bill, Yes, I'm a little confused as to how the city is approaching this. As My previous reply to your message was about the artifacts (which are not fixed...

... I saw some restored decks and they really looked fantastic! I took some pictures. I also saw the plywood decks with grooves sawn in, but missed the...
Michael, I and many here agree with you and your family in their assessment of "Ghosts and Legends." It was built by the former operator about 2002 in the...
Mike, This tour is bascially a poorly conceived lemon that was intended to capitalize on the haunted house image that the ship started marketing heavily in the...
Somewhere I have a 1975 picture of my wife next to a huge model of the Queen Mary. On our Christmas visit, I saw the Normandy, the Titanic, and the Lusitania...

Does anyone know if we can download photos we like from this Yahoo Group? If so, how can it be accomplished? I keep seeing a "download status toolbar" in the...
Assuming you're using a PC, Patrick, just right click on the picture and choose Save Picture As. It will likely open your My Pictures folder and you can save...
