Here is Northern Pacific’s rather pathetic attempt at a “holiday menu” in 1967. We’ve seen this menu cover before. Inside, the menu has no holiday decorations but claims in large letters that it is a “Holiday Menu.” The menu says … Continue reading
This menu is dated 1963 and by this time NP has slightly simplified the border design around its menu cards, allowing printing to be done with one fewer color. The prices are higher than on yesterday’s 1959 menu but the … Continue reading
