BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S 1961 — dir. Blake Edwards
Just adding a couple of fun facts about the ship in this postcard that I just read about :)
RMS Saxonia (1899-1925) was the first of two Cunard Line ships with the same name. The second, RMS Saxonia (1954), was later renamed RMS Carmania in 1962.
The RMS Saxonia (1899-1925) featured in this postcard:
Was built by the John Brown & Company shipyard in Scotland and was one of the first ships to have a wireless telegraph installed.
Served as a troop transport ship and an armed merchant cruiser during World War I.
Was refitted and converted to a three-class cruise ship in 1922, with a passenger capacity of 600 in first class, 400 in second class, and 1,000 in third class.

I don’t want to kill anyone. I don’t like bullies; I don’t care where they’re from.
On March 22, 1895, the Lumière brothers, Auguste and Louis, screened their first film, "La Sortie de l'usine Lumière à Lyon (Workers Leaving the Lumière Factory)," to an invited audience in Paris. #OnThisDay
