1937 Cactus Menu

The cactus on this menu is meant to represent Phoenix and other Arizona resorts reached by Southern Pacific trains. Specifically, it looks a little like a scene from Saguaro National Park near Tucson.

The menu inside is identical to yesterday’s, as both are dated May, 1937. The menu from the day before yesterday is dated January and offered slightly different entrées: flounder instead of halibut, corned beef hash instead of spaghetti, etc.
