Up for bid on eBay is this wonderful railroad dining car menu used on the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad.
The seller says, "The menu dates to the 1920s and features artwork by John Held Jr., a celebrated illustrator during the 20s whose art graced the covers of many magazines and even the cover of F Scott Fitzgerald’s book Tales of the Jazz Age. Held’s work was so common, usually portraying characters engaging in fun filled activities, that his work is now closely identified with the flapper era. The menu consists of four pages and measures 9” by 7 7/8” closed. It is in very good condition with the exception of a crease running through the lower center and a bit of handwriting on the back. Incredible that breakfast only cost between 25 cents and 75 cents while dinner was $1.50. Nice railway collectible, especially due to the John Held Jr illustrations.
