Vintage Menu & Photos
Hotel Agua Caliente
Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico
~ April 1929 ~
Rare, original luncheon menu from the Hotel Agua Caliente from April 6, 1929...just ten months after the Hotel and Casino opened. Woman pictured is Miss Frances Farris - resident of Los Angeles - who flew down for a weekend's respite.
The Agua Caliente Casino and Hotel operated from 1928 to 1935. Although the casino and hotel were closed, the racetrack continued to operate for many years. Gambling and horse racing were illegal in neighboring California. And alcohol was illegal throughout the US, due to Prohibition. So, many wealthy Americans and Hollywood celebrities flocked to Agua Caliente, which was just 18 miles south of the San Diego Airfield.
Menu has a center crease and shows wear & small stains. Five photos from the same visit are still glued to an old album page.
Menu Measures 4.625 x 7 Inches.
Three Larger Photos are 2.75 x 4.5 Inches.
In Very Good Antique Condition.
Please see photos for further details
