Wagon-Restaurant Menu pour les Petits Enfants.
[Imprimé en Canada: Chemin de Fer National du Canada, 1928].
Booklet with menu, stapled in wrappers (15 x 11 cm.), [16] pages. FIRST EDITION. A little booklet that serves as a children's menu on board the Canadien National trains, and also as an illustrated children's book telling the story, in verse, of children of various ages, traveling via the C.N.F. The attractive illustrations are printed in black, orange, and tan, and the decidedly Art Deco design is rich in pattern, especially in the clothing of the children. The centerfold contains the menu "pour petits garcons et petites filles" offering options at four prices for Dejeuner, Diner, and Thé. Interestingly, many of the prices on the menu (each for a full meal) have been crossed out in the print and revised downwards. Also present is the original mailing envelope, also illustrated and then printed in three colors, unaddressed and unmailed. Very slight soil to wrapper panels, otherwise fine. The envelope is very good.
Price: $90.00
