My father was some sort of "mascot" during the New Orleans christening of the IC City Of New Orleans in 1947. I am looking for articles, pictures, etc on that event to frame for him as a Christmas gift for this coming Christmas. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

I can be reached at:

Fees for the duplication of items, purchase of items, etc will be paid if within my abilities.

Thank you very much for any information you may be able to provide.
