Some of the many wonderful new parcels include a shout-out to Thomas Van Houten, former Manager of Terminal Engineering at United States Lines (link to ship parcel can be seen here) and a tribute to Michael Callan and Deborah Walley, stars of the 1962 Disney film Bon Voyage, set aboard the SS United States (a link to this purchase can be viewed here.)
