U.S. Naval Academy Christmas Dinner Menu Booklet, Interior Spread, 1945
A 1945 Christmas Dinner menu booklet, believed to be from the U.S. Naval Academy, bound with the institution's traditional blue-and-gold cord. The left page features a duotone photograph of a campus memorial; the right presents the holiday menu -- including roast turkey, baked Smithfield ham, and mincemeat pie -- framed by a whimsical illustrated figure. Keepsake menus such as this were produced for midshipmen and staff to commemorate major holiday meals during the World War II era. Project: 218692
