Coast Line Menu Series

I mainly collect menus from western railroads, but it appears I have enough to identify one series from the Atlantic Coast Line that was still used after the merger into the Seaboard Coast Line. These menus had a portrait-style color photo with a white space at the top used either for the name of the train or the word “Menu.”

The design was frankly superior to the palm fronds or flowers used on Seaboard Airline menus of that period, so much so that, after the merger, it was even used on the former Seaboard train, the Silver Meteor. These menus were used from at least 1963 through at least June, 1970; I have one dated December, 1970 in a completely updated format.
