Measures: 9-3/8"W X 12~7/8"H *This menu, unlike my others listed, is undated, but I have some certainty of the date, based on 2 sources. 1.)This belonged to my Great Aunt Florence, who performed on Atlantic cruises and toured 13 countries in Europe with a Vaudeville Cabaret Troupe in the '20s to '30's. I will include a note with the provenance/photo for all buyers of these menus.2.) The other "proof" of age, is that the Chartreuse liqueur was reinstated back into the French culture 1929, and returned to the Carthusian Brothers at the The Grand Chartreuse monastery. *I am selling a number of these lovely very old menus from her travels that have been stored for decades in her old leather briefcase. Thanks for stopping by....
