Original vintage Gilded Age hotel dinner menu card from The Mount Pleasant in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, dated Friday, September 7, 1906.
This exceptional double-sided souvenir menu offers a magnificent glimpse into high-society resort life at the turn of the century. The front side features a grand multi-course dinner menu listing decadent Gilded Age delicacies alongside an entertainment announcement for a evening song recital by soprano Miss Marion Spinney. The bottom text documents the historic "Associated Houses" luxury hotel syndicate, linking Bretton Woods to famous winter destinations in Ormond Beach, Florida, and New York City. The reverse side displays a beautiful, crisp sepia-toned illustration titled "By the Light of the Moon.—The Riders are leaving the Porte Cochere of The Mount Washington," depicting an elegant nighttime horseback riding party. A stellar addition for collectors of White Mountains history, antique menus, or luxury hotel ephemera.
