St. Vincent Postcards

Reference CD

All St. Vincent postcards that I have in my collection are now available in an easy-to-use self-running (nothing to install!) "eBook" (electronic book) on CD-ROM that works with Microsoft Windows 7, 8 or 10).

 

The CD-ROM now contains over 300 St. Vincent postcards, of which over half are "classic" postcards (those issued between 1900 and 1950)!


The postcards are presented in an e-book format known as a "FlipBook".  It looks like a book or photo album on your screen and you simply click on the page to have it turn (along with a realistic page turning sound), and the album can even flip the pages for you automatically or run as a slideshow!  So it basically functions as a "virtual postcard album".

--> Only $14.95 + sales tax & shipping


St. Vincent Video Visit

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then video must be worth 29.97 pictures? (that is the number of frames per second of video in the USA).

Video footage from St. Vincent is now available on DVD !

I was on St. Vincent and Bequia Island (in the Grenadines) from April 19 - 25, 1993.  The original footage was on 8mm videotape and I have just transferred it to DVD.  While postcards are very nice, nothing beats moving images and sound to capture a place! 


If you have never been to St. Vincent (or even if you have...), then this video is a nice to view the island from your armchair. Keep in mind though that this is not a professional video. While the video footage is good, there is fairly little voice-over, except for the tour guide at the botanical gardens. But I did insert some title captioning at the beginning of certain scenes. The DVD has full menu structures, allowing you to easily navigate to the desired scenes. 


Running time is 82 minutes.

Video footage includes:

  • Landing and take-off at Arnos Vale Airport
  • Kingstown
  • Fort Charlotte
  • Fort Duvernette
  • Drives along the scenic Windward and Leeward Highways
  • Young Island
  • Tour of the Western Hemisphere's oldest botanical gardens
  • Ferry to and from Bequia Island
  • Port Elizabeth (with fort)

 

Price: I'm barely covering my costs to produce this at US$ 9.95 + postage & sales tax.
