the art of shopping
Stopped by again at my favourite store to ask about my enamel truffle sign and pot au chocolat. Nothin' yet.
I didn't leave empty handed though. I bought an old menu card from an outbound voyage from England to Australia in 1924 on the R.M.S "Ormonde"; an invoice template from Daburon Freres for truffles and foies gras; some drinks lists from 1930 served by english catering company J.Lyons & Co Ltd; and some old wine labels.
I would like to get some menu cards from the 19th century. Haven't seen any yet. Also, I'll purchase a set of blank menu cards at a later date. These will be perfect for dinner parties.
I love my little purchases!
