University of Kansas City Breakfast Menu

Here is the first new Union Pacific wraparound-photo menus I’ve seen in more than a year. It shows the University of Kansas City, today known as the University of Missouri–Kansas City. Originally a private school, the university didn’t become part of the Missouri state system until 1963, well after this menu was printed. There’s no date on the menu, but the prices match those of other Union Pacific breakfast menus from 1949.

I’ve speculated that there might be more UP college menus from Utah or other states, but I never considered Missouri. Union Pacific entered Kansas City, but when it published its “Your America” series of paintings for each state it served, Missouri wasn’t one of the states. But since the City of St. Louis went from St. Louis to Kansas City, Missouri on the Wabash and from Kansas City to Los Angeles on Union Pacific, the railroad probably wanted to honor passengers from that part of the country.
However, it is noteworthy that the medication should be taken once a day, levitra 10 mg or as prescribed by the doctor only. Isn’t that nice? We live in a country so free that our drug companies can charge us $350 for 20 tablets of levitra without prescription, whereas in Canada you can get it for $90.

A code inside the menu says “11-12 5-9.” Trains 11 and 12 were the Idahoan, which operated between Portland and Green River, connecting there with the Los Angeles Limited westbound and Overland Limited eastbound. I can’t find a train 5 in UP timetables, so it is possible the 5-9 is a date code meaning May, 1949.

According to my UP menu checklist, this is the 129th UP wraparound-photo menu that I’ve identified, all but two of which are posted here (the other two have their covers shown as “missing menus”). That’s in addition to 15 similar menus whose photos don’t wrap around to the back.
