Tonight’s Dinner Special

This came with yesterday’s menu, but yesterday’s was a breakfast menu and this is for dinner, so they were probably collected on the same trip. The paper clip mark at the top of this menu shows that it was once inserted into a menu folder, but that folder has gotten separated.

The menu is for a “special” table d’hôte dinner with juice, salad, or soup, one of four entrées, potatoes or vegetable, bread, dessert, and beverage. This is clearly a bargain menu as first-class menus usually have both potatoes and a vegetable and both soup and salad. The price was 85¢, which if this is from the same year as yesterday’s breakfast menu is about $15 in today’s money.
