1944 Lake Club Menu Springfield Illinois Nightclub Major Music Venue Vintage

Description

This is a vintage original c.1944 menu from the historic Lake Club of Springfield, Illinois.  This restaurant was a major nightclub and entertainment venue in the 1940s and 1950s that featured nationally touring musicians.   This menu is four pages printed on cardstock measuring about 13.75” x 10.25”.   The front and back covers feature photos of nationally touring acts that appeared at the Lake Club including Ted Lewis, Griff Williams, Blue Barron, Mel Torme, Mills Brothers, Nat King Cole Trio, Ink Spots, Pearl Bailey and others.
This vintage original menu is fully complete and intact.  The bottom of the second page is printed with notice relating to the Cabaret Excise Tax which went into effect April 1, 1944 so I’d date this menu as c.1944.  This vintage original menu shows moderate handling wear and a couple small spots and minor stains.  Overall condition is very good.
