Description
Original pocket “Souvenir Menu” from Nun’s Sea Food Restaurant in Santurce (San Juan), Puerto Rico, clearly dated 1947. A great piece of post-WWII island hospitality history with crossover appeal to rum and bar ephemera collectors thanks to the Don Q advertising on the back cover. Not a reproduction.
