EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite menu cover, dated 1948, showcases the elegant Art Deco design that once graced the dining experiences aboard the iconic Cunard White Star Line's RMS Mauretania. The illustration, created by the talented artist Longley, captures the essence of the Jazz Age, with its sleek lines, rich colors, and intricate patterns. The menu cover is a visual feast for the eyes, with its gold and black color palette, geometric shapes, and stylized floral motifs. The central image of a graceful woman, adorned in a flowing gown and holding a fan, adds an air of sophistication and glamour. The overall effect is one of opulence and luxury, fitting for a ship that was once the epitome of ocean travel. The RMS Mauretania, launched in 1937, was the last ocean liner to be built with a traditional steam-powered propulsion system. It held the Blue Riband for the fastest transatlantic crossing for over 20 years, making it a symbol of speed and innovation. The ship's grandeur was reflected in every aspect of its design, including its menus. This menu cover is a testament to the attention to detail and artistic flair that went into creating the dining experiences aboard the Cunard White Star Line's ships. It is a reminder of a bygone era of travel, when crossing the Atlantic was an adventure in luxury and style.
