A printed menu from Hotel Chamberlin, 1896. From the great hotels of Berlin, Vienna, Rome, Madrid, Tokyo, Havana and beyond — a global window onto late-Victorian and Edwardian grand-hotel dining.
Beyond New York and the Belle Époque capitals of Western Europe, the great hotels of Berlin, Vienna, Rome, Madrid, Tokyo, Havana, Buenos Aires and Montreal all produced their own printed menus. Collected by Frank E. Buttolph during her decades-long campaign to document worldwide hotel and restaurant dining, these cards form a remarkable global ephemera archive.
