[MENU] [FOURTH OF JULY] The MONMOUTH - SPRING LAKE BEACH; FOURTH of JULY Dinner

Spring Lake Beach, NJ: 1940. Cards. 28 x 18 cm. Color illustrated and embossed, this Fourth of July Menu was a FEAST! The meal begins with Assorted Canapés, Chicken Gumbo, and Fresh Fruit Cocktail (with Grenadine!), and then the choices: Poached Filet of Chinoock Salmon, or Charcoal Broiled French Lamb Chops au Cresson, or Cassolette of Seafood a la Newburg, or, well you get the message. The dessert is of course a "Star Spangled Banner Pudding". This iconic seaside hotel first opened it's doors in 1875 on the then virtually deserted Atlantic beach front as the Monmouth House. The modern structure rose from the ashes after a devastating fire in 1900. For years, this hotel was a place to enjoy the summer breezes at the New Jersey shore. Unfortunately, the hotel was sold and razed in 1975. Some scratches to the face of this broadside. Cream embossed and illustrated heavy card stock. Good. Item #4269
