Costa Line: A fold-out (16\" by 18\") brochure for the ANNA C\'s 1964 Caribbean cruises.
Built as Furness-Prince Line\'s SOUTHERN PRINCE in 1929, Costa picked her up for a song in 1947 after Furness refused to take her back after arduous war duty.
The ANNA C was famed Italian designer Nino Zoncada\'s first commission for Costa. The result was so successful that Zoncada went on to work on many more Costa vessels. Small color photos show the Sorrento Dining Room, Portofino Lounge, San Remo Dining Room, Rapallo Lounge, Sun Deck Swimming Pool, and a nicely appointed cabin.
Plans show seven decks. While accommodations on upper decks often came with private baths, those on the lower decks were remnants of the ship\'s immigrant hauling days, crammed six abreast with facilities somewhere down a twisting passageway.
A 1971 fire during renovations convinced Costa to send the aging ANNA C to the scrappers.
Very good condition.
