Postcard of the "Prestolonaslednik Petar" (n.d., c. 1940)
Yugoslavia: Jadranska Plovidba (Adriatic Shipping Company) (postcard), n.d., c. 1940. 3.625" x 5.625", color printed on the recto, unused. A postcard of the vessel "Prestolonaslednik Petar" (or the "Crown Prince Peter"), the boat that William S. Burroughs and Ilse Herzfeld took from Dubrovnik to Athens on 26 July 1937 to get married. Burroughs married Ilse Herzfeld to save her from the Nazis. This trip and the history of Burroughs and Ilse Herzfeld is documented in Thomas Antonic's book The Three Wives of Queer William S. Burroughs , from which I learned of this ship.
