Item Description
3.5x6.5" on orange card stock. The menu features "Fruit Cocktail", "Chicken Salad, en Mayonnaise", and "Old Fashinoned Pumpkin Pie," among several other items. According to reporting from the Indianapolis News, the Halloween party was "one of the merriest...parties and gridiron events ever held in the Hoosier state," as the train cars were decorated "with Indiana cornstalks and pumpkins, and the windows and walls were covered with weird black, orange and red Halloween cartoons and festoons." Mrs. Hughes reportedly dressed for the occasion w/a witch's hat. The front cover of the menu features a witch riding a black cat w/a broom carrying a jack-o-lantern. There are two sheets of card stock holed at the top and tied together by brown string. Has light edge wear and handling. Back of second page has a few light moisture marks at the bottom. Extremely Fine. Only the second we've seen in our 55 years.
