CRUISE BOOK 1959 - 1960

The 1959 - 1960 Helena cruise book was produced by
DAITO ART PRINTING CO., LTD. 19, 2-chome,
Shintomi-cho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Japan. This book
contains many full color pictures as well as black
and white pictures. The book has a padded hard
cover and measures 9 3/8 inches by 12 1/2 inches.




THE COVER: HELENA 59 60 features a sunset-
silhouette effect and becomes the first mass-
produced book to have a hand-painted cover.
The colors were air-brushed onto the reflective
silk material by hand before printing the
silhouette and title in black. Because of the hand
work, each book is slightly different from any other.
