Fleet Society Librarian Dave Crooks (member # 7) sent me this postcard which originated from the Real Eight Gallery of Sunken Treasure. The post card depicts a woman with a gold chain and an encrusted anchor which was located in the museum. This is just one of several postcards that were produced by the Real Eight CompanyAlso referred to occasionally as “The Real 8 Company”- was incorporated in 1961. It had eight members….Kip Wagner, Kip Kelso, Dan Thompson, Harry Cannon, Lou Ullian, Del Long, Erv Taylor and Lis... and sold at its museum.
You might wonder why I referred to this post as “Postcard From Barcelona”. Well, that is a mystery that only a select few of you with a sense of nostalgia will be able to answer. If you think you know, send me an email.
