Vanderbilt steamboat 1847 postcard
Cornelius Vanderbilt steamboat 1847
In 1847, Vanderbilt took over the presidency of Stonington, the first railroad he would lead. As he was starting to dominate the steamboat business, he decided to take over the connecting railroads. In 1849, he became interested in ocean-going steamboats, taking advantage of the California Gold Rush. He launched a steamship service that transported prospectors from New York to San Francisco via a route across Nicaragua. He made his millions by controlling two burgeoning industries: the steamboat industry and the railroad industry. When he died, Vanderbilt's estate was estimated to be worth $100,000,000

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for.
I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording.
Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
