Auld Cunard Lang Menu Syne Years Deco
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the glamorous era of ocean liner travel with this exquisite menu cover from the RMS Samaria of the Cunard Line. Dated 1934, this menu marks a special occasion - New Year's Eve, or Hogmanay as it was known in Scotland, where the tradition of Auld Lang Syne originated. The illustration on the menu is a stunning example of Art Deco design, with its geometric shapes, bold lines, and rich colors. The jazz age influence is evident in the lively, upbeat scene depicted, as revelers gather to ring in the New Year. The menu itself is adorned with elegant typography, adding to the overall sense of sophistication and celebration. The RMS Samaria was a British ocean liner that sailed between Liverpool and New York from 1931 to 1939. She was known for her luxurious amenities and elegant dining rooms, making her a popular choice for transatlantic travelers seeking a refined travel experience. This menu cover offers a glimpse into the lavish New Year's Eve celebration that would have taken place aboard the ship, complete with fine dining, live music, and dancing. As the clock struck midnight, passengers would have joined together to sing Auld Lang Syne, a traditional Scottish song that translates to "old long since." The lyrics of the song encourage reflection on the past and a look towards the future, making it a fitting way to mark the beginning of a new year. This menu cover serves as a beautiful reminder of the grandeur and excitement of ocean liner travel during the 1930s, and the enduring tradition of celebrating the New Year with loved ones and friends.
