Jasper Park Dinner Menu

We’ve seen this menu before, at which time I dated it to 1956. I now think they were from 1954. The clue is the ad on the back bragging about CN’s order for “359 new passenger cars.” This dates it to 1954, when when CN placed what it called a “record purchase of new passenger equipment.”

We’ve seen an advertisement bragging about this purchase from the March, 1954, National Geographic. Below is a follow-up ad providing more detail from the April issue of the same magazine. Continue reading

The Royal Sceptre

Like many of the other symbols of the queen’s authority, the royal sceptre was made in 1661 for the coronation of Charles II. However, the massive, 530-carat diamond at the top of the sceptre was added later. It was cut from the cullinan diamond, which was one of the largest diamonds ever discovered at more than 3,100 carats. Purchased as a gift for the King Edward VII by the Transvaal Colony for 150,000 pounds (about $2 million in today’s money), most of the diamond was cut into pieces that became part of the crown jewels or were owned personally by the royal family.

The back of the menu shows the orb, the coronation ring, and St. George’s spurs. The ring dates to 1831 but the orb and spurs were also made in 1661. Continue reading

St. Edward’s Crown

Canadian National’s 1937 coronation menus each showed one of the symbols of the king’s authority, and CN repeated that in 1953. It managed to do so with only three menus by putting symbols on both the fronts and backs of the menus. In this case, the front cover shows the crown of St. Edward which, despite the name, was never worn by King Edward as he died in 1066 and the crown was made in 1661 for King Charles II.

The ampulla was also made for the coronation of King Charles II. Since his coronation was the first after England’s civil war, during which many of the symbols of the monarchy were destroyed, many of those symbols were remade at that time. Continue reading

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

The same Streamliner Memories reader who contributed scans of Canadian National’s six 1937 coronation menus also contributed scans of menus for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. Elsewhere on this website I wrote that there were also six of these menus, but it turns out I was counting both the front and back covers of the menus. As near as I can tell, there were just three.

The back cover of this menu, however, uses a graphic of the coronation throne in Westminster Abbey, possibly because of restrictions on photography within the abbey. Continue reading

Cod Fish Flake Breakfast Menu

When I first saw the photo on the cover of this menu, I wondered, “Why is that man trying to ski on the snow-covered roof of that rickety looking barn?” It turned out it wasn’t snow, but cod; it wasn’t a barn, but a fish flake for drying the cod; and he wasn’t trying to ski but laying out the cod for drying. At least I got the rickety part right, though I wonder how he got off the flake when he had surrounded himself with fish.

This menu came with the Mount Athabaska menu from a couple of days ago and was included with the 1953 letter providing “menu cards” to an Ohio railfan. Although the cover letter is dated February 1953, the menus themselves are probably from 1952; this one has a printer code of “17-11-52” on it. It also is a little more spartan than the Athabaska menu, which includes fresh fish as an entrée, while this one — ironically — does not.

Mount Athabaska Breakfast Menu

Here’s a beautiful photo of Mount Athabaska, near the Columbia Icefield, on a Canadian National menu. The car in the foreground looks like it was made in around 1940, but the menu is from 1953. It says it was for breakfast in the buffet car, but the menu is as substantial as one from a full diner.

The menu itself is undated, but it came to me with a 1953 cover letter from W.R. Sutherland, the superintendent of CN’s sleeping, dining, and parlor car department, providing “samples” of Canadian National “menu cards” from an Ohio resident who requested them. It was nice of that Ohioan to save the letter with the menu. Continue reading

Tonquin Valley and Lake Maligne Menus

The Tonquin Valley holds Lake Amethyst surrounded by spectacular mountains, but it was probably seen by few Jasper Lodge visitors in 1951 because it required a hike of at least seven miles each way, not counting the miles of hiking to explore the valley once people got there. There are some backcountry lodges in the valley, at least one of which offers horseback trips from the trail heads, but the thought of all day on horseback probably also discouraged many people.

Jasper Golf Course Menus

These menus show the “6th green, and beyond, No. 10 fairway” of the Jasper golf course. In 2020 Golf Digest rated this course the eighth best in Canada, slightly edging out Banff, which is number nine. Of course, both are owned by Fairmont, which probably doesn’t care which is ranked highest as long as both are highly ranked.

The lunch menu, which is dated August 5, 1951, offers eggs Benedict, halibut, trout, chicken mixed grill, veal, roast beef, cold salmon, chef’s salad, and another salad. Each meal came with the usual accompaniments but no salad, which is why two salads were included among the entrées. Continue reading

Athabasca Glacier Menus

We’ve previously seen Jasper Park Lodge menus from 1935 and 1940 and we’ve seen this particular photo on a menu from 1948. These two from 1951 show the lodge used the same format over at least three different decades.

The photograph shows a part of the Columbia Icefield, which wasn’t accessible to tourists in 1935. The photos in both the above breakfast menu and the below dinner menu are poorly reproduced with one of the colors being slightly offset from the others. While such a mistake would be unacceptable in an advertising brochure, CN probably accepted them from the printer believing that people wouldn’t walk out on the restaurant simply because of poor printing especially since the nearest alternative restaurant was several miles away.
