Description: S S NORMANDIE THE FAMOUS "GREEN BOOK" 1935 DELUXE INTERIORS BROCHURE IN OUTSTANDING CONDITION APPROX. 72 PAGES PLUS COVERS. 10.75" x 14.25" THIS IS A COMPLETELY ORIGINAL FRENCH LINE ITEM. THIS IS THE ONLY AUTHENTIC FRENCH LINE INTERIORS BROCHURE WITH EARLY COLOUR PHOTOS OF THE MAGNIFICENT INTERIOR SPACES AND IS THE "PLATINUM STANDARD" FOR BROCHURES OF THE GREAT OCEAN LINERS. PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS! FULL DESCRIPTION: An outstanding example of a very rare piece of ocean liner ephemera that's a "must have" if you're a collector and fan of the great liners. There are other great original brochures of the Normandie, such as the "grey book" but the most it has are Black & white photos. The Green book has colour photos!!! Allowing the closest glimpse one can get of the magnificence of the Normandie. The condition is outstanding particularly given that this brochure is 89 years old! The covers are strong with only the slightest edge wear. There is a long "Scratch" on the bottom of the front cover but it's only a scratch and NOT a tear. Inside, beautiful. No "foxing" on any of the pages; the binding is secure; no rips or tears on any of the pages. NO musty smells! I've owned this piece for about 20 years. Right now there's only one other of these on eBay and it has a damaged and repaired spine! Text is in French, appropriately. She was, after all, the pride of France. IMPORTANT TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE. PLEASE READ so that there are no misunderstandings. 1) AS-IS, AS-PRESENTED, FINAL SALE. No returns or exchanges. I describe my items critically and accurately as a serious long-time collector (over 50 years) of ocean liner ephemera. I also look at my items as if I were buying them myself. That's my responsibility as a seller, and my 22 years history of 100% satisfaction on eBay are my credentials. If you have any questions, or concerns, about anything in this listing, please ask and have those things satisfied to your liking BEFORE you commit to buy. That's your responsibility as a buyer. Now, those things said, despite my standards of describing something correctly, I am human and if I missed something (unlikely), just reach out to me and I'll do my best to address your issue within reason. After all, at the end of the day I want you to be happy with what you've spent your hard earned money on. 2) I pack carefully. I well understand that it is VERY IMPORTANT that items such as this are properly packed. This item will be packed between stiff cardboard in a WATER RESISTANT mailer, and will be appropriately marked FRAGILE and DO NOT BEND. So not to worry, when I ship it out it will be packed as it should be. 3) I will insure this item for the FULL SALE PRICE you pay. That said, if the item arrives damaged or is lost it is your responsibility to file a claim with the USPS. Don't attempt to put it back in my lap and one reason for that is if you file a claim it is handled much quicker than having me do it. If the item arrives damaged, it will be because of mishandling by the post office. Not because I didn't pack it properly!
