1913 Teddy Roosevelt Rough Riders Reunion Menu Plaza Hotel Las Vegas New Mexico

Description

This is an original antique menu from the 1913 reunion of the Roosevelt Rough Riders, veterans of the Spanish-American War known formerly as the 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry.  This menu is from the Plaza Hotel of Las Vegas, New Mexico which was a venue for some of the Rough Rider reunions of the early 20th century.    The menu is four pages printed on coated cardstock measuring about 10.5” x 8” with ribbon binding.  The front cover features artwork of a Rough Rider on a bucking horse carry the colors of the 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry.
The menu features Canapes “Teddy”, Punch A La R.R.R. “A Good Stiff One”, “Bombs Parker” which I think is a reference to General John Henry Parker who earned praise from Teddy Roosevelt for commanding a Gatling Gun detachment during the Santiago Campaign of the Spanish-American War, along with other dishes.   The top of the menu page is printed with a R.R.R. emblem and the lower right hand corner is printed “The Plaza, Friday, February 14, 1913”.
This menu is an original antique from the 1913 reunion of the Roosevelt Rough Riders at The Plaza Hotel in Las Vegas, New Mexico.  The menu is fully complete and intact with some toning from age, moderate handling wear and bit of dust staining and light foxing in places.   There is a small circular stain in the lower right hand corner of the front cover.    Overall condition is very good and very suitable for framing or display.  Email any questions.  Thanks for looking.
