Purchase this menuThe cover is by Stanley Jezzard and features an English waterfront scene. The menu is for Dinner on the R.M.S. Queen Mary, Monday, January 23, 1950, in Cabin Class. There are some items on the menu that you just don't see on a menu these days: Creme St. Louis, Jugged hare a l'Anglaise (sounds awful), and Congress Pudding for dessert.
What can I say? Cruise ship menus can be an art form in itself. Back in the day, they had works of art on the front, and inside was printed the menu for that day, catching a moment in time. Now, ships have so many restaurants you can't try them all in once cruise, and the menus don't change. Celebrity's Eclipse even has a menu on an ipad! Here, I've shared some of my collection of ship menus - if you have any to share, please do!
