San Francisco: the restaurant, 1939. Single folio leaf of coated cardstock, folded once to make a 4p menu measuring 12x9 inches, printed red and black on white. Front cover, aside from a mildly abraded spinefold, is pretty clean, but back cover was stacked with smaller items leaving one-inch dust and mold collecting margins; the bottom margin is especially uglified with dots and a half-dozen circular spots given to very old mold. No mustiness. An as-is exemplar of this Exposition-era production, dated from chef's offering of a "Treasure Island Special @ .65 / With Fried Egg .80".. Laid in find a 2.5x3.5 inch card, letterhead, announcing "Special for Today, Chicken Saute with Spaghetti" with typewritten price of 1.50.
