A rather rare postcard from Kos. It may be from 1956 to 1959
I wonder if the old name on the right is Angelika. Any ideas?

So many photographs and postcards from Kos that I do not know where to start!
Here is one from 1956 with the beech and the famous hotel Aktaion (east side of the port)

And then a beautiful one from 1959 looking from the harbor towards the SE.

In the summer of 1955 I made the only trip I have ever had to the Greek islands with my parents and my sister. We went to Kos with Kanaris, which was just three years old (I was seven). We left Piraeus at four or five in the afternoon and I went to sleep a few hours later on one of the wonderful armchairs of a common area in the second class. I woke up at three in the morning from the noise of certain passengers. We were in Leros! I still remember the lights far away, the lantzes, the people. Magic world. I went back to sleep and woke up later in Kalymnos. Still dark. But by Kos there was light and time to leave....
This is the Kanaris I remember, a pretty, brand new ship, almost beautiful, although we were leaving this characterization for her sister Miaoulis

Kos was the prettiest island, fresh from the liberation but with strong signs of Italian influence and (surprisingly enough) many Turks in Antimahia and especially Pyli. We stayed no more than a week...
They tell me Kos is still pretty, despite the many tourists...

But when I said big change... I meant with 1955 when I had visited Kos...

Kos 1960
This is the inner port of Kos as I remember it! Simple and with the tenders (lanzes) arriving here with passengers.
