CRUISING THE RIVERS OF AMERICA
The majestic Admiral Joe Fowler, an authentic steam-powered sternwheeler, sets sail from Liberty Square on a scenic cruise of the frontier "Rivers of America."

This is an amazing shot of the Admiral Joe Fowler on the Rivers of America with the Haunted Mansion in the background. Notice that the canopy has not been installed at the Haunted Mansion to protect the guests from the Florida sun. It affords a much nicer view of the mausoleum entrance and the front of the mansion.
As the card continues, you can see the fence and the netting on the fence. This is all important, right?
You can learn a lot more about this postcard and the Admiral Joe Fowler by visiting Brian Martsolf's Walt Disney World in Postcards site.

to men like us...
those details are of the utmost importance.
You forgot the best part of this particular postcard, which is the beacon out in the river where Aunt Polly's would be built a few years later. This is one of those "missing" beacons I was talking about on Passport a few months ago. =)
