Object Details

The front of this House Restaurant menu provides a narrative of a visitor’s day at the Capitol. A tour of the House and the Senate from Representative William Cole of Missouri, a commute on the Senate-side train, and lunch in the Capitol are all noted on the paper menu. Printed with images of the Capitol, menus were popular souvenirs through the 20th century.
