So what was on the lunch menu in the 50's?

Good question. We managed to find a menu dating back to March 1959. It actually didn't sound too bad. No prepackaged items, all fresh and served up from the full-functioning kitchen. Not sure you'll find 'sloppy joes on mash potatoes' today on the menu, but I do like the sound of a Waldorf salad. The title at the top of the menu is quite interesting - 'Menu for type "A" lunches'.
