VINTAGE LAS VEGAS "DUNES" HOTEL "SAVOY ROOM" MENU FULL "ART DECO" ROLLS ROYCE. I believe this is from the mid-sixties to early seventies but I am not sure. I was surprised to learn that the "Dunes" was not very successful. The next thing that I found was that if you google the Dunes Las Vegas Savoy room there is a very interesting page about those who worked in that "Dining room" and those who ate there in their own words. You will learn that only one table had a cloth and who sat there. Who tipped the best and all the rest of the celebrities that were there. I am guessing the age as one writer liked a certain thing and gave a price in 1971 and this menu had it cheaper so that would be older because things did not get cheaper in Las Vegas. The 22" x 17" menu is made of heavy stock and could have been laminated. The cream background sets off the black Rolls-Royce open roadster and to give it more pizzazz notice that the wind screen grill,lights and front bumper all are silver chrome.The wide white wall tires and wire wheels also help make the automobile stand out as one of distinction.The female figure appears to be dressed from the late 1920s. This is not just the front but a full back and cover illustration that could be displayed with just that framed. Then it could be framed double sided with the menu on the other side as it too is remarkable.A Kosher menu,Cold fish,chopped liver and then the prices are remarkable. This is not just a menu but a duel purpose piece of art glorifying the beginnings of Las Vegas, the roaring twenties,the glorious autos that have stood the test of time and of course the art that went into the creation of this menu. This is a rare art piece that needs to be displayed with a Classic car, a museum or a bar or a fine restaurant. I will ship in a box not a envelope .
