Is your Google fu stronger than mine? There are a lot for '65 and later but I have not found any for the 67 cruise other than the cruise book, and only a few shots in that. You can tell its '67 due to 5xx modex, the '65 have 8xx series. I'm trying to see how the tail looked. This is the best image I can find

Thanks guys! That is a great shot. It looks like the rudder is white, but the chevron seems to be something other than black, it seems lighter than the NH in the tail
