Travel’s Golden Age

For sophisticated travel memorabilia with a decidedly cool groove, the vintage menu and notecard collections at Cool Culinaria are truly swoon-worthy. Among the gorgeous choices is a curated collection of ocean liner menus compiled by Norma Beazley assembled from the estate of her late husband, avid maritime memorabilia collector Herbert Beazley. Menus from the RMS Mauretania (1933), the M.S. Saturnia (1929), SS Vulcania (1933) and the SS Resolute (1930) showcase beautiful original cover art and a fascinating glimpse into the era’s onboard dining.

For train aficionados, there’s a wine list for Prince Henry of Prussia’s Pullman dining car, the “Willard” (1902); a Pullman buffet menu and wine list from the early 1900s; a London and South Western Railway dining car menu (1906); and a Union Pacific Railroad children’s menu form the 1940s, featuring a pair of bears on the cover and a menu of vitamin D-rich choices to help prevent rickets. Other stunning menus include a selection from cocktail rooms including the Piccadilly Hotel, London (1950s); the Willard Hotel, Washington D.C. (1936); and the Golden Slipper Restaurant and Nightclub of Glen Cove, Long Island (1960s).
