I just thought I'd share a photo of this cool old postcard I found.

Nice! Here's one from 1971.

And people wonder why we don't like Wharfside and Grand Bay....

An interesting older view of Cruz Bay - luckily 40+ years of progress have beautified that barren landscape.
Thank You both, for taking the time to post these cards.

That is really cool!

I find it interesting that St. John is labeled as St. Johns in the second post card (twice).

Did you say "Old." Wow!Maybe I should take a closer look in the mirror.. :{I was born in November of 1964} Parafins

"St. John's" was fairly interchangeable with "St. John" until the 1970s or so. You will find many older St. Thomanians and Crucians saying it, along with "St. Croyix"---and of course, the only correct way to pronounce our neighbor to the north is JOST, not YOST...no idea where the "Y" sound came from....

How cool! Here's a linen I found at a thrift shop.

What strikes me about that photo:
Look at how few boats are in the bay.

The landscape looks so flat. I think that's because the buildings there now are terraced so they show the height more.

45 years...it's funny to look anywhere and see the differences in landscapes over such a time.

That is a really cool picture...Thanks for sharing!

Wonderful, thanks for sharing the photo from 1964.
Way groovy.
"The Four Seasons" movie isn't quite that old, but I love watching the actors enjoy the serenity of that bay...
What was the name again...?
