The Shadowing Olympics SS Dinner Menu

Here’s another in this series of Canadian Pacific Alaska steamship menus that uses a photo we haven’t seen before of the Olympic Mountains as seen from Vancouver Island. The steamship in the photo is the Princess Victoria, which Canadian Pacific placed in its Triangle Service (Vancouver-Victoria-Seattle) in 1903. It looks pretty dated in 1948, when this menu came out, and in fact it was retired in 1952.

Inside on page two are photos of Skagway, a Malamute dog, and a Lockheed Lodestar that Canadian Pacific Air Lines used to reach northern communities. This is the same model of plane shown on a 1952 Triangle Service menu.
