"Thirty Minutes for Supper"

This painting on the cover of a vintage menu
is Walter Richards,
portraying travelers arriving at an
early-day "Harvey House" much like
the first one three-quarters
of a century ago.
Dated as Monday, December 8, 1952
WOW! Great prices...but not sure
what the average income was?

They have Postum listed under beverages...now there's a brand name I haven't heard for a LONG time! Don't you wish prices were still that low??
