Canadian National Menu Series

Canadian National didn’t issue as many menus as Canadian Pacific and I haven’t tried to collect all of the ones it did issue. Many of the ones I have seem to fall into several series, though like Canadian Pacific menus the series aren’t as sharply defined as menus from U.S. railroads.

First are the Jasper Lodge menu cards, of which scores must have been issued over the several decades they were used. Many photos were used for several years in a row, but the menu designs changed a little from year to year. In at least some years, the lunch and dinner menus were dated but breakfast were not, and I have three breakfast menus from one year that is probably in the early 1930s.

In the early 1940s, some dining car menus had a color photo on top with the word “Menu” and other decorations on top. Later, the photo dropped down to the middle of the cover. In the late 1940s, the photo menus were splashed with institutional green. My dining car menus from the 1950s are so different from one another that it is hard to call any of them a series.

In the early 1960s, menus featured provincial symbols — shields, birds, flowers, tree leaves — in a subtle effort to show that CN was the only railroad that served every Canadian province (CP didn’t go to Newfoundland). Later in the 1960s, some tall, narrow menus seemed to be used in buffet cars, while the full diner menus were wider and had images of tableware in at least three color variations: red and blue on a white background; red and white on a black background; and blue and white on a red background.

Canadian National also issued a beautiful series of menus for its Alaska steamships. In the 1940s these were decorated with charcoal drawings. The 1950s replaced the drawings with some very colorful paintings. In the 1960s CN used photos that, in comparison to the paintings, were pretty washed out. Nearly all of the menus in all of these series had an image from Alaska on the front and one from Jasper on the back, though a few of the charcoal menus had Alaska images on the front and back.

As usual, dates ending in 0 or 5 may be estimated. Menu PDFs tend to be around 1 to 2 megabytes in size.
