Ports of Call Village postcard

Details

CollectionYour Story is the Peninsula's Story CollectionDate1963ContributorWilliams, YvettaDescription'This is a postcard when the [Ports of Call] Village first opened. We were the first to sign a lease. This was for our store, the Mermaid's Dowry. After a month, we did so well, we signed up for another space, tripling our size. Our second shop was in the Sierra Nevada, called Baskets Aboard the Boat. One year my husband created an underwater Christmas tree so you could see it as you walked along the gangway. He was very clever. Location: San Pedro.'NotesYour Story is the Peninsula's Story scanning event February 24, 2019, Peninsula Center Library, Rolling Hills Estates, CA.Ports of Call Village, the waterfront recreational area in the Port of Los Angeles, officially opened with phase one in 1963 with the "Old California Village."LanguageengResource Typemixed materialHeld ByPalos Verdes Library District.
