She had five dining rooms and lounges, two cocktail bars and pools, a grand ballroom, a squash court and even a small hospital. Three years after her maiden voyage she became the grandest ocean liner in the world.

She was retired from the sea as an active liner in 1967 and was never more popular as an iconic Southern California attraction as a hotel and venue for special events. It has attracted over 50 million people; and is the home to three world-class restaurants.This match book is a part of history. It unused in in good vintage condition.
